    Default Chassis set up and handling

    OK, next questions. Is there a set up guide for FST and what to do if car is loose on entry, what do do for an exit push just basic adjustments for these cars. How much front to rear weight bias, how much f/r brake bias ect. Any help will be appreciated.

    thanks again

    Would you mind sending me these documents as well?
    It's a good question. For all the books I've read, I don't recall ever seeing any kind of troubleshooting guide with suggested adjustments for various handling concerns...

    Default Handling Guide

    I have such a thing and I think I posted it at formula-first.org on the forum. This is "members only". Let me look around tomorrow and see if I still have it. I can e-mail it.

    I didn't write it but it was good.

    Jay my advice. First find out what your castor number is. Without knowing that other adjustments are futile.
