| Post subject: | Corner entry grip roll |
Hi I had my car pretty much where I wanted it last night at my local club. The only issue was grip rolling on corner entry , high speed corners slowing and entering a corner. Has any one any ideas on how to cure this? I thought of anti-dive/ raising roll centre but do not want to lose the steering I have for the rest of the corner. I have recently installed a gear diff and have 60wt oil in which is very thin, if this was thicker , say 2000, do you think the diff would push the car more, rather than letting it turn in so hard? cheers in advance, M |

I would raise the front roll centres at the pivot pin. Also consider trying softer springs front and rear. Skiddins |

Post your setup. This is on carpet right? ? Going wide front and rear always helps. I run my carpet cars at 189mm wide front and 187/188mm wide in the rear. |

This is the set-up I used, do you think the rear diff being 'loose' would affect this? xform/index.php?act=view&ID=2196&setup=t2_008 |

Go wider at the wishbones. I use 1.5mm shims and the high roll centres. |
