No doubt these cars are a bit of a handful. But I want to give it a fair chance before we make a change. If anything, I may make a switch to the “Gentleman’s Physics” if we can not get a handle on the cars.
Part of the problem, I think, is relative to the cars we have been driving. The trainers are pretty docile when compared to about everything which may be making this change appear more drastic than what it really is.
My set up was fine. No rear ARB, diff settings were pretty high and I used a lower first gear which allowed me to lay on it off the corners. Problem was I ran out of rear tires with about 2 laps to go. They were yellow and I was spinning. A lot.
To use a quote from a famous baseball player who, in the times of specializing, comes to the plate with a different persons bat every time. When asked why, he said it is not the arrow it is the Indian. That player is Many Ramirez and he knows a bit about swinging a bat.
Same may apply here with these cars. Different arrow, same Indians. It will take us a while but we will grow in to them.
Stay tuned for next seasons tracks to be announced soon.
