QUICK REFERENCE
The Quick Reference table is a simple to use setup guide. With the car’s
handling characteristics listed on the left of the table the suggestions for
solutions are presented in order of importance and also shows whether
the adjustment should be a positive or negative change.
HOW TO USE
Identify the problem
After driving your car and getting a feel for how it’s handling bring it in
and decide where you feel the car could improve.
Using the table
The table is separated into 5 main areas that represent the cars main
handling characteristics. Understeer, Oversteer and traction roll are
further separated to identify exactly where the problem occurs and even
further still to know if it is occurring On or Off throttle.
Pinpoint the Solution
• Select a characteristic that best describes your cars handling problem
(for example oversteer).
• Then identify in which stage of the corners that the oversteer is
occuring (for example corner entry).
• Further identify the problem by guring out the throttle setting when
the problem occurs (for example, on or off throttle).
• The number corresponds to the adjustment that will have the most
benet (lower numbers should be tackled rst). In this case we are
recommended to try Tires and/or the Anti-Roll bars (front & rear).
• The table then tells you what adjustment to make and whether the
adjustment is to be made on the front or the rear of the car. As you can
see the Tires fall under the Front section whilst the anti-roll bars fall
under both the Front and Rear section.
• The colour of the box represents whether it is a positive or negative
change to the selected area of adjustment. The tires are Red (a positive
change) so we need to make them harder. The front anti-roll bar is Red
(a positive change), so we should make it stiffer, whilst the rear anti-roll
bar is Green (a negative change) so we need to make it softer.
Testing the solution
It is recommended that you try one adjustment at a time and test the
new setting. If it has not had the expected result you can either try the
rest of the changes or increase the amount of change. If you feel you
would like to try something different simply move on to the next level of
possible adjustments.
Note that setup is always a compromise and changing one setting
affects the handling of another part of the car. It is therefore important
to only make small changes at a time.
