THE RACING LINE

The Racing Line section contains usefull information on car setup, tracks and driving techniques.

Sorry that this section isn't growing that fast. I have to admit that my time is a little limited at the moment. Lesson three on suspension is under way. We were sent a ton of info by Richard Duncan on supsension theory so once we've simplified it down, we'll post lesson three. I've also started to compile some track guides. The manuals do give a quick run through of the ciruits, however their not going to tell you how to get a fast lap! Thats up to you!

• NO.1 - WEIGHT TRANSFER, SHAKING IT ALL ABOUT.
  Learning to balance a car is one of the fundemental and most important things to master. To be a good driver you must know what the effects of your inputs will be and how to adjust accordingly.
  In the first part, I'll discuss this important principal and later how your suspension setup affects it.
  
• NO.2 - TYRES, DONT FORGET YOUR RUBBERS.
  A lot of people overlook the importance of tyres when racing.
  Your tyre choice and set-up can greatly affect how your car handles in a race and can mean the difference between winning and losing. If you know how to work with your tyres, you shouldn't get bubble trouble.
  
• NO.3 - SUSPENSION, SPRINGS AND THINGS - COMING SOON!
