I'm glad you guys like it. Sure, I'll make some more. Just check back here every so often in case I get inspired.

Quote from tristancliffe :Because the lower pressure 'end' has no sidewall strength (due to low pressures), and hence moves around a lot, rolls up, and generally has little grip.

Small differences (+-2psi) can be used to adjust the balance, but only very fine tuning. Bit changes won't produce predictable results.

I see. Thank you. So, if I had my fronts at 40 psi and rears at, say, 38, I would have a bit of oversteer, but any more deviation would cause unknown and possibly unwanted results?
Tire pressure and oversteer/understeer

Would someone please explain to me the reason this is true:

LOWER pressure in the REAR and HIGHER in the FRONT induces OVERSTEER
HIGHER pressure in the rear and LOWER in the FRONT induces UNDERSTEER

From my own reasoning, I would assume that lowering the pressure in the rear while keeping the fronts higher would induce UNDERSTEER because of the increased contact patch of the flatter tire. But, I've read, from a few different sources, that it is the other way around. Why is this?

Just wanted to repost this here at the shiny new forums:

__________________________
So I got back from a real life AutoX a few hours ago, and I decided to make an AutoX layout based on what I just ran today. This track is a little more condensed and a little lower speed than its real life counterpart, but give it a shot and tell me what you think.
To install put the file in data -> layout. Then go to the Autocross car park and load the track.
