Overall I'd say to learn the car first in it's stock form and build from there with aero being the last thing you add. |

Yeah, classing. Aero is typically on the higher dollar, higher end, less participated in classes.

T2's with 7kg springs. I mostly need to go up in spring rate, play with ride height, and work from there. The car feels okay most of the time, but on longer high load corners it starts to understeer at mid corner. It looks like I am bottoming in the front as it is chewing the hell out of the inner fender liners.

I'm in a very similar boat right now-- I finally have the front end grip enough that I like it, but I've destroyed the fender liners in just a few races.. I'm at the same static ride height I was before, but now it's tearing stuff up. I need to either go to stiffer springs or raise the car.
(APR GTC-200 with 3" splitter as well... KW Clubsports for springs, although I don't know what rates they are. they were on the car when I bought it. I need to do a little research on rates and lengths to get correct ride height before I spend any money on springs. likely also need to get the shocks revalved. I'll have some time this summer tho- next race is 3 months away but I'm fiddling with engine/oiling stuff right now and want to do some back-back testing with that, so I don't really want to change much on the car that would alter my lateral Gs and affect oil pressures in the corner. |
