Howdy all.
I've finally had the opportunity to run on the concrete at Forbes field
this past weekend at the Solotime Midwest Divisional Championship event
and I was really impressed by the amount of grip that's available. BTW,
it was an excellent course Karen Babb (we ran the 1998 south course).
The weather was, well, typically midwestern. But the racing and the
camaraderie was outstanding.
Here's the problem: Normally when I enter a corner too hot with my FWD
car on Toyos It just pushes due to our local slick racing surfaces.
BUT, at Forbes the car's front end physically hopped sideways as I
pushed through the turn due to entering too fast.
Okay, here's the question: What caused this? Other than slowing down a
tad bit is there any sort of tuning that I can do to my Stock Class car
to lessen the hopping effect? Adjust the front tire pressures up or
down? Swaybar endlink tightness? Drive better? Buy a can of "stick"
from the Alfts?
Thanks in advance.
See you on course.
