I don't think there is a general rule, as every track, car and tyre is different. But usually the stickier the tyre the stiffer you want to go to work the tyre more rather than the suspension.

I'd suggest starting from your normal settings then making small adjustments as required to change the balance to suit. Or go to the extremes of hard and soft and work your way back to something your happier with.

Yeah thats what I was thinking, will start as before then firm things up and see what happens.

Cheers Bud :cheers2:

So, 2013 Sprint season is upon us. Snetterton next weekend and then Lotus (hethel) the weekend after

Car is all ready, had a few upgrades over winter, not many but decent ones!

Nitron 3-way suspension
PPG Dogbox with Sequential shifter and flatshift mapped in
New front pads
adjustable droplinks and full alignment and corner weighting
oh and some new rims.

Pics below, all ready for next Saturday :D

Those rims are very nice, super strong and light I guess?
Good bit of time with the box and shifter to be had, paddles next?

If it works as well on the EVO as it does on the GTR you should love that Nitron 3 way set up. I've been really pleased with mine :thumbs:

Pretty light for their size!
Nah, no paddles for me. The old thing needs to loose weight as a first off!
