Post subject: | Track conditions |
Hello, I was searching through the setup sheets online, trying to find one which resembles my local track. I can see most of them are for more open tracks and I would like to ask which tracks resemble the following conditions (since the search feature online doesnt work). Track Size: Tight Track Traction: Medium Track Surface: Medium to Bumpy Track Type: Mostly hard packed with a few sections of loose dirt Track Condition: Dry/Dusty I still cannot find a setup sheet from which to start off. Thanks |

Which car? When it come to peoples opinion of tight , smooth rough we all will view it slightly different. once you have a base setup it will very rarely change between high grip or dusty & so it will be just slight tweaks to the conditions or what you face.. For me this is my 808 base xform/index.php?act=view&ID=1357&setup=xb808 its then just tires or a heavier roll bar for desired effect. |

Xb808 2010. I am very sure that when I say tight track I am it is far more technical than most of the famous tracks I have seen. More technical than Guarda and Sidewinder. No where near the straight lines these tracks have, with only just one straight line. |

Generally that setup will work, if you need more turn in then use a 41t front gear as this will really hook it in & around the turns. |

Do you think that shortening the wheelbase by placing the rear shims at the back of the A-arm would help handling in a tight track? |

Not always as it locks in rear end & creates rear grip, you would think a short car has a smaller turning circle but on the track does not actually help. |
