I have started to fiddle with downforce, gearing and rideheight to get the best for each track but where do I go from there to improve things. Like, most people seem to have a lot of front downforce and little rear wing... how does this work ? Surely you just get a load of oversteer ? Also, so far, to get more mechanical grip Ive just been lowering the ride-height just until the plank wears, but what about the dampers & springs etc... any help/tips would be appreciated -- DarDANe][ Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.

There was a great set-up guide for GP2 written by Doug Arnoa (sp?). If you can find that on a GP2 site that would be a good start. Then we need someone to update it for wet and damp weather! DarDANe][ <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:8o09ul$38v$[email hidden]...
