has your car been on a diet yet?like removing all sound deadener and extra metal?has it got a fullcage?without the stiffness you will find it hard unless you have a major HP advantage,the car will flex so settings etc change all the time around the track making it hard to get consistancey.to get the balance right you need to move things like battery and fuel cell into the passanger rear,but this needs to be done on scales so you can get it set with you in it.camber,caster and toe will depend on practicing.good start would be 2-3 neg front camber,as much camber as offset bushes will give you,1-2 neg camber on the back{but this depends on front grip},toe in a bit for rear steer,this gives great turn in.fwd setup if front geometery critical for obvious reasons. learning to drive a fwd properly is half the battle,it helps if you havnt done much racing in RWD as it has diffrent driving technic and reactions take time to change.getting a decent time on the track is easy,taking secounds of it is much harder and cost alot of time and money.then there is tire pressures and tire tech.etc etc etcetc etc etc body flex will make it hard getting to the next level,as cosistancy is the name of the game. mick [Report message to a moderator]
