Front downstop is doing nothing when you're entering a corner. When the rear is loose entering a corner while braking (too much frontal weight transfer) you should reduce the rear droop, i.e. going from 3 to 4. This way more weight is being kept on the rear axle. Visa versa when the car is understeering going into a corner while braking. 1-4 is a good setting for smooth tracks without a lot of weight transfer. When the track is bumpy i always use 0-3. Going lower then 3 in the rear and you will notice that the car doesn't transit smooth from the braking phase into the turning/ accelerating phase. |

The front downstop screws aren't touching the anti rollbar blocks when the car is resting on it's wheels or braking into a corner. You could use the upstop screws on the front but in reality nobody does that. The only way front downstop actually does something while entering a corner is when you're accelerating into a corner. Maybe the misunderstanding comes from me meaning downstop instead of droop. |
