I have a problem in Indycar 2 with overheating the right front tyre on ovals. Whatever I do (harder compund, pulling stagger to left...) I still have very high temperatures. Anyone know how to deal with this? Please reply via E-mail if possible

In most situations changing the right front compound to 'hard' will help. However, some tracks like Darlington, Dover and Disney just require you to take it easy throught the turns(slow down).

Lower your steering lock to less than 10 degrees. You should be able to turn just a little sharper than what will get you around the turn. This will reduce the scrub on the tire. Use the other suggestions as well, slow down and use a HARD compound on the RF. Jason. > I have a problem in Indycar 2 with overheating the right front tyre on > ovals.

A few things to try are, Harder compound tyre, add more tyre pressure, soften up the right shock, more front wing, softer front sway bar, less steering lock, slow down in the corner, adjust your line in the corner for a more gentle approach and departure, less rear wing..... Hope that helps a bit. Cheers, Ron
