Did y'all miss the rake and springs on my BTR or something? That Yellowbird is mild.

And not to be missed also are the high front damper settings. You set it up like an old F1 car where the front is as stiff as possible and suspension travel comes from chassis flex.

I'd like some more front spring, actually. If it wasn't for the fact I'd get smacked with magic it'd exit most corners on 3 wheels.

I guess I did miss yours, or just wasn't paying enough attention. My BTR is front spring stiff and rear raked, but not like that. I don't want it skating across the surface.

I just experimented until I arrived at a setup that let me lap the fastest. I even bough a second YB to try out Chassis Reinforcement and while it made the car easier to drive, it also made it slower. I tried lower and raising the Ride Height but the setup I currently have just gave me the best personal combination. Originally I was running +0.24 front toe but lowering it helped me big in the lap time department.

Family health first. Hobby's second. Take good care of him.
Sorry to hear! The worst things about viruses are all you can wait 'em out... Good luck and hopefully he beats it fast!!
Thank you everyone.
Other than time. Food can help but convincing a five year old to eat foods that he doesn't like normally is worse than trying to get the Auto Union car drivable

I tried making that car drivable once, After 30 minutes I finally gave up on it and put it in the stock yard. Eating anything is good for illness so give him what he enjoys.Thank you everyone.

It's not that's it undrivable it's that you have to drive it it's way or crash.Is it this Auto Union car undrivable ? Maybe next time, put it on FITT event .
And it doesn't respond to tuning.
I kid you not last time I tried I did a max oversteer set up and it only improved a little.
Basic set up max/min ride
Min/max springs dampers arb
5/60/5 lsd
And it still under steered until I left foot braked and drove it with the throttle.

The Auto Union is a car that was designed to go as fast as possible in a straightline down an Autobarn.
From memory, the only time it did corner was, unfortunately, with the help of a crosswind near an overpass that sent the car and driver Bernd Rosemeyer on a fatal ride.
