new love ;)
I just came home from my first drive with the TC6.
After I made the standard setup yesterday I was skeptical if the car will behave well on the track. 4,5 degree camber for the rear tires and 7mm droop in front are values I never used for the TC5. Also did the standard setup of the TC5 never suit my driving style. I had massive understeer. So I wasn't sure what to expect...
Right now I am very happy, satisfied and relieved. The car is an angel on the track! The behaviour is predictable all the time. It turns as you think it should when turning the steering wheel. Setup changes are clearly traceable and recognizeable on track. The standard setup is a very good start for medium grip indoor carpet (there is nearly no rolling in curves noticeable).
My first change, I removed the rear anti-roll-bar, immediatly brought two tenth. My next step was to relocate the arm mounts from B to A. The car now felt a little inert. After removing the front anti-roll-bar too, the car became more agile & grippy than before and I was able to complete more than 70 consecutive laps in a constancy I never had experienced with the TC5. The car is fast, forgives little mistakes, is great over the curbs, follows your commands like it reads your mind. It just gives the confidence the driver needs to concentrate to gain the last two tenth per lap.
Just one thing (I think it was mentioned before): The screws for the spur gear get loose really quick! I lost one after 5 minutes. So before hitting the track use your threadlock on these! Same problem with the arm mount screws. Retighten after every run.
