Still can't figure out why his tire pressure is all over the place..........

Frustratingly, the bumping that I thought was my tires rolling over on the sidewalls is most likely a bent wheel...

Also, I annoyingly over-did the front camber... which means in slower turns there wasn't enough lateral force to lay the tires flat, which gave me understeer in the slower corners but a balanced car in the faster stuff... Hence the spin.

Sheesh... AX is difficult...

Hey Jonathan! You are doing too much to that car without trying to work with the way it came. Camber settings are directly related to the type of tire you are using. I don't know what tires you have on your car, but if it is a street compound, it is best to leave stock settings. Pay attention to tire wear and a pyrometer would be a plus. I can still teach you grasshoppers a few things..........

Don't blame the car for the spin........You gave all the imputs to the car that is supose to be well balanced to begin with. Maybe is the nut behind the wheel that needs a little torquing......:?hock: Study balance, do not load any corner past it's 100% of adhesion. SMOOOOOOOOTH IS THE ANSWER.
