Keith Tanner said:I never suggested adjusting balance by tire pressure, but I haven't heard of using temps to adjust shock settings. I wonder how the "same temps front and rear" philosophy works on a car that has a high power/weight or a static weight balance that's far off 50/50.
I've asked a couple of times about the steady state balance and I don't think it's been answered, so I'll assume that's okay. My thought is that you start with getting the basic balance right with springs and/or sway bars, then you use shocks to adjust the transitions. The shocks being at the limits of their adjustments could mean that the basic roll couple is of out of whack, or it could be that the shock valving ranges are just crazy. Thus the back to the fundamentals questions.
Oh sorry, steady state is neutral and I suspect the car would be quicker if I could learn how to use it and drive it like a momentum car. I sent Ron Sutton this same question and he asked for my shock dyno graphs. I sent them but have not heard back yet.
