Re: Handling vs grip
totta Crolla Wrote:Do I need more of a drift setup on my rallycar to reduce the grip maybe "Drift" suspension is set up to reduce grip. The characteristics are stiff springs, heavy roll bars, and firmly valved shocks with a lot of rebound damping. The car sits low and flat, with minimal suspension movement. Learners with low powered cars use high tire pressures to reduce the size of the contact patch. A smooth road surface is preferred. "Grip" suspension is set up to (obviously) increase grip. Softer springs, smaller diameter roll bars, less rebound damping and more suspension travel. The car will have a higher ride height and exhibit more body roll. The tires will spend more time in contact with the road surface, and as a result, the car will have good adhesion over rough surfaces. Unfortunately, it is not possible to have your cake and eat it too ![]() Cheers... jondee86 |
