Any Sites that teaches me how to setup my car in GPL?

This should get you started... [link lost in import] [link lost in import] [link lost in import] [link lost in import] [link lost in import] -- Kenny L. #14 Generic Chevy PRC Member Wall Scrapers Racing Team

Just like to know coz i'm a complete dummies when it comes to car setup. Like those camber and stuff. All i know how to setup a car is a Radio Control Car. So any comments on it? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. Philip.

These two don't work anymore, but the Nunnini and Alison sites should be enough :) Andre

Actually your experiance in setting up an RC car will help you alot once you figure out what all those adjustments do. Since the laws of physics are the same all over...and GPL has very advanced physics...the way the RC car behaves translates directly to how the car in GPL will respond to the same change (ie. stiffer springs and the car responds quicker). Just an observation of a long time RC/Slotcar racer who drives racing sims :) Chris

Of course: RC-cars are fun, but I'm more in RC-planes ;-) Jens >Just like to know coz i'm a complete dummies when it comes to car setup. >Like those camber and stuff. >All i know how to setup a car is a Radio Control Car.

I hear that! Jumped out of R/C cars the moment I messed with an ARF years ago. Now I fly everything from combat gliders to ducted-fan. Mucho fun! =) Cheers! Marc

I'm thinking of getting into RC planes & Heli, but too bad I don't have my own vehicles, so it's too troublesome to bring this 2 kinds of kits out and fly. It's more practical for me to play RC cars only. :)

Absolutely. Hopefully my DB spitfire will be gracing the skies next summer, If I can find another 100 hours from somewhere :-) MS. > I hear that! Jumped out of R/C cars the moment I messed with an ARF years ago. Now

Hehe. Helicopters are interesting, especially whey you are new at it. 1. Buy a kit. 2. Build it. 3. Go fly it. 4. It becomes a kit again. 5. Build it again. 6. Repeat from step 3. :) All RC hobbies require responsibility, especially Aircraft, but no RC hobby requires more responsibility than RC Helicopters. When you get good at it and don't "Re-Kit" very often, it is also one of the most fulfilling and satisfying accomplishments ever. -Larry > I'm thinking of getting into RC planes & Heli, but too bad I don't have my > own vehicles, so it's too troublesome to bring this 2 kinds of kits out and

Especially if you were/are a 1/4 scale RC racer. The big cars (3 feet long!), the weedwhacker motors, the big tires, the realism... Oh, my... :) The only thing I miss about San Diego :( -Larry

I was a Helicopter Jockey myself, but dabbled in planes as well. I preferred their 'mechanical' nature, and the fact that it didn't take 6 months to build one (well, except for that Bell 222 with retracts that took me 2 years :) ) -larry

A great way to develop hand eye co-ordination that's for sure. I believe that Maestro Senna was pretty handy with a heli. Me, I'm a confirmed fixed wing ***. Maybe this equates to me being a F3 ace as well <G> MS
