You have difficulty with tire wear, here's a new way to cure it! With this Dampers table, it's easier
to comprehend the effect of changes in all the phases of cornering. At this EASIEST THAN EVER DAMPERS TABLE
  • DAMPERS ADJUSTMENTS TABLE
  • To correctly achieve good results, adjust the dampers according to the inside / outside wheel moving in either rebound / bump.

    Ex: Entry type 1 for more "understeer" raise the OUTSIDE FRONT BUMP and/or lower the INSIDE REAR REBOUND 

    Ex 2 Entry type 2 for more "understeer"raise the INSIDE FRONT REBOUND and/or lower the OUTSIDE REAR BUMP

    Ex 3: Negociation of corner (constant or full throttle) or entry of chicane (type 3) for more "oversteer" lower OUTSIDE FRONT
    BUMP and INSIDE FRONT REBOUND OR raise the OUTSIDE REAR BUMP and INSIDE REAR REBOUND

    ENTRY TYPE PHASE 1:
     INCREASING BRAKING + INCREASING STEERING

    OUTSIDE FRONT damper move in BUMP &

     INSIDE REAR damper move in REBOUND

    PHASE 1
     FOR MORE "UNDERSTEER"

    OUTSIDE FRONT BUMP +

    and/or

    INSIDE REAR REBOUND -

    PHASE 1
     FOR MORE "OVERSTEER"

    OUTSIDE FRONT BUMP -

    and/or

    INSIDE REAR REBOUND +

    ENTRY TYPE PHASE 2:
     DECREASING BRAKING + INCREASING STEERING

    OUTSIDE REAR damper move in BUMP &

     INSIDE FRONT damper move in REBOUND

    PHASE 2
     FOR MORE "UNDERSTEER"

    INSIDE FRONT REBOUND +

    and/or

    OUTSIDE REAR BUMP -

    PHASE 2
     FOR MORE "OVERSTEER"

    INSIDE FRONT REBOUND -

    and/or

    OUTSIDE REAR BUMP +

    CORNER TYPE PHASE 3:
     INCREASING STEERING + CONSTANT THROTTLE

    both OUTSIDE dampers moves in BUMP &

     both INSIDE dampers moves in REBOUND

     (ex: entry of chicanes,turn entry at full throttle)

    PHASE 3
     FOR MORE "UNDERSTEER"

    OUTSIDE FRONT BUMP +

    INSIDE FRONT REBOUND +

    OR

    OUTSIDE REAR BUMP -

    INSIDE REAR REBOUND -

    PHASE 3
     FOR MORE "OVERSTEER"

    OUTSIDE FRONT BUMP -

    INSIDE FRONT REBOUND -

    OR

    OUTSIDE REAR BUMP +

    INSIDE REAR REBOUND +

    MID CORNERS PHASE 4:
     DECREASING STEERING + CONSTANT THROTTLE

    both OUTSIDE dampers moves in REBOUND

    & both INSIDE dampers moves in BUMP

    (ex: middle of chicane : "flick" steering back to zero)

    PHASE 4
     FOR MORE "UNDERSTEER"

    INSIDE FRONT BUMP -

    OUTSIDE FRONT REBOUND -

    OR

    INSIDE REAR BUMP +

    OUTSIDE REAR REBOUND +

    PHASE 4
     FOR MORE "OVERSTEER"

    INSIDE FRONT BUMP +

    OUTSIDE FRONT REBOUND +

    OR

    INSIDE REAR BUMP -

    OUTSIDE REAR REBOUND -

    EXIT PHASE 5:
     INCREASING THROTTLE + APEX TO EXIT CORNER

    OUTSIDE FRONT damper move in REBOUND &

     INSIDE REAR damper move in BUMP

    PHASE 5
     FOR MORE "UNDERSTEER"

    OUTSIDE FRONT REBOUND -

    and/or

    INSIDE REAR BUMP +

    PHASE 5
     FOR MORE "OVERSTEER"

    OUTSIDE FRONT REBOUND +

    and/or

    INSIDE REAR BUMP -
