XRAY - Model racing cars

Bought a fk04. Old car now for spares

Drove it yesterday. Did best lap 18 flat. Rest of the the improvement has to come from practice...

Welcome ChadRacing to the wonderfull world of Xray T1 racing.

Download . Contains a lot of data about setup. The car used for explaining it is the T1 EVO2 with pivot suspension.

And if you have more specific questions, don't hessitate to drop them here, stupid questions don't excist!

Good luck

Grip is still an issue. To much dust

Tracktemp was 22 degr. Air temp was 19. Decreasing to 12 degr. track / 15 degr. air temp. when the sun disappeared.

Best time I did was 18,44 sec's. (Still improving every day...)

But I tried a lot of downstop settings. Following list is what I tested (Front/Rear downstops):
A) 1/0
B) 2/1
C) 1/1
D) 1,5/0
E) 1/2 (secend best time)
F) 2/2 (best time)

Still with every combination I had ondersteer after apex on throttle. F was best but not good enough in my opinion.
All settings gave me more steering respons going of throttle. A, B, C and D leading to oversteer. E and F did not have the oversteer effect but still a very noticable effect on the steering radius (decreasing).
Decreasing and increasing my d/r did not change it.

I did not try the 6 degr. caster.

Looking to the weather forecast next tests will be monday.

I'm a puzzled

Please advise me how to go on with the next bunch of test runs??

BTW: was more gentle on the throttle. Helped
