I would start with the basic set up. Check the team drivers set ups in the database but check the tires used. If you drive with ride tires, search for set up sheet where Ride tires were used.

What have you found to be the main difference between Ride and Schumacher tyres?

Sorry but I never tried Schumacher tires. The main difference between Ride and tires like Sorex or LRP is its diameter. Ride tires are much bigger so they will make the car roll more, more air in tire means, higher chance of front tires overheating, more air in tires means more overall traction and higher risk of traction rolling

Schumacher import sorex tyres.

Ride tyres are being used here in the uk now under the moorespeed brand - they definaitely offer silly amounts of grip, grip roll being a problem, its something I'm trying to solve now!! :shock:

mb3195,
please could you share your setup because on high traction carpet im struggling to get any grip at all, for me the tyres have no initial bite then oversteer on the exit of a corner.

Guys,

if you use Ride tires, check this set up, the car was just awesome

xform/index.php?act=view&ID=64&setup=t3_2012

note, it is set up for high traction, if your track has low traction, than use standard 1.2 anti roll bar in the rear

Martin,

are you using all 6 screws in the rear of the top deck?
also i am using the t3 11 so does this setup still apply, i know how the shock towers on the 11 are one hole less so ive put them in that position.
