Basic tunning ●● Springs: by using a softer spring you will have more sag, more chassis roll/lean, more dive and a less responsive car this might be better on low-grip surfaces; by using a harder spring you have less sag, less body lean, less dive and a more responsive car. What to apply depends on driving style and grip-level surface. This is more suitable on high-grip surfaces.
Default Set up Page 7
Maintenance ●● Shockabsorbers Check for smooth operation of the shockabsorbers, and check for airbubbles by pushing the shock up and down fast after removal of the spring. Clean the shockabsorbers as needed and refill with fresh 100% pure silicone oil as needed. ●● Tyres Replace tyres if case worn or damaged, and clean the surface in case dirty to obtain better grip.
