ICR2 Long Beach

I have been racing at long beach over the past couple days, and found a pretty decent setup. The only problem is on the front strait, the long sweeping right I find myself spinning out alot! It is really annoying. Does any one else have this problem? If not, please email me some comments that could help me correct that problem, with minimum influence on speed!!! It seems like an oversteer problem but softening up the rear don't seem to help, neither does adding down force to the rear wing. I can't seem to figure this out. Help!!

Gus, Try the things listed here one at a time. 1.stiffen front anti 2.lossen rear anti 3.increase steering lock 4.recalibrate joy(just in case) If you are getting desent times I wouldnt fiddle with the wings too much. Good luck, -8>} -DG-

Try increasing the rear camber, it will help keep the rear end under you. Dave Sparks IWCCCARS Project: http://www.theuspits.com/iwcccars Late Night League: http://www.sequoia-dev.com/Hawaii/latenite.html Hawaii Handle: davids

Without seeing your setup it's difficult to judge. You could try stiffening the front ARB and softening the rear. You might also reduce the front wing. Where exactly are you spinning out? That it's not a problem I've ever encountered at LB (and I've tried some way-out setups) makes me think that your setup may be quite, how should we say, novel! cheers Alan

I've had the same problem, the car gets loose for no reason and you find yourself trying hard to get back control at over 150MPH... Totally unrealistic IMHO. Downforce should max out on that straightaway, how can a car get so loose so abruptly? If you get any info on this, please tell me... A. Renault

And of course make sure you are using the 1.02 version of ICR2. -- **************************** Michael E.
