Any idea what I should adjust to reduce understeer going into Padock and the last corner before the start/finish straight.
I prefer a set up that turns in slightly if I take my foot off the throttle but seem to go from understeer to oversteer very quickly. I guess I could just slow down!
I have played with antiroll bars settings (running on smallest currently), diff settings (around 15 to 25%), front camber (2.8 deg), rear camber (1.5 deg), tyre pressures (can't remember).
I think I've probably managed to make it worse! I have found that a car that 'feels right' isn't necessarily the quickest.
Any help appreciated. I'm not just after a free set up, just trying to learn what to adjust.

I have the same issue Brucey. I should be able to go a bit quicker once I sort it out. I upped the front ARB, reduced rear tyre pressure, increased front and moved the brake balance forwards. Seemed to help a bit. Other than that, change your line into T1.

Cheers Cagey,
Had another play tonight and got the handling a bit more predictable. I made the decision to do all my practice with race fuel levels as it becomes the norm.
5% either way on the diff settings seem to make a significant difference. Choosing a slightly different line also helped on a couple of corners.
I will find out Friday how good my tweaking was, it should be fun and pretty close!

I find that the race fuel helps stabilise the car as well. It's good to practice with a light fuel load as well, as the end of the race is just as important.
