Jim,
Don is correct. You can dial in some understeer or dial out some oversteer by playing with the tire pressures. Basically you are balancing the car with a different method by raising and lowering the tire pressures. DD and I suggested making a bar adjustment. Both methods are correct. One takes more work than the other. Sometimes, you cant do enough with the tire pressures and a bar/spring adjustment has to be made. I want JP to get the car corner weighted. B |
