Notes
Reduced both understeer into and wheel spin out of corners, just put the power down while aiming at the apex and the car pulls its self round. Managed a 50.849 at Tsukuba with a far-from-clean lap. Comments always welcome and appreciated

There are few problems here.
#1. The rear SR is lower than the front. Thus means it bounces more which is also affected by the RH. Thus when you go over bumps you tend to lose traction. To regain the traction you have added TCS which in turn slows the car down on the straights and makes the car want to turn like a train.(with no rails that is)and the Front Camber is at 0.0? The front camber should always be more than the rear. Yor front tires are getting almost no grip what so ever. The stabilizer bars should also be realitively close to one another. Try some of this and see if it helps. I am not criticizing your setup just trying to help. Smile

Thanks, I know it doesn't look good but while testing on Tsukuba it handled really well. I understand what the values should be and why but I just adjusted what I felt needed adjusting and it worked.

Am I testing on the wrong track? Because it worked fine on smooth tracks.

the glass is not half full as the optimists may say
neither is it half empty as the pessimists will have you believe
its just twice as big as it needs to be, yup that's right, i'm a realist
