Maybe it's just me, or I'm in need of some money to get a wheel. Anyway, I keep on getting understeer (I am talking quite a bit) despite setting my brake set to 70% front bias and 512 nm - I'm not sure on how to counter this, but I'm too lazy to use the handbrake (No kidding! ), so any tips to get rid of the problem is welcome. If needed I'll attach an setup in case. Also, if I turn, at some point if I hold the brake for too long, I start to limp to a side even WITHOUT damage.

(please forgive my bad english - I'm only 12 !)

Had a quick run with the one that's got lower suspension (wth is that other one?!) and did notice some understeer. It's caused by the tyre pressures, they're a little bit too high. Set them around the 180-195 range, and definitely not over 200.


I got a low 1:32 on the 3rd lap using your set with lower pressures and didn't feel the back was going to step out at any time. Practice makes better!

The one with the higher suspension was supposed to be a rallycross setup, I just forg0t to change teh tires to knobblys/hybrids, lol.

Anyhow I'll take your advice and see if I can get myself back into the low 34s to high 33s again, right now I'm running low 36s and mid 35s, slower than I used to be.

TRy to work through some setup guides. The're a few basic guides out there that won't hurt the brain to much to read through. They sould give you a few pointers in trying to sort out a misbehaving setup.

Specifically to your question, as mentioned above the tyre pressures can account for a lot more than you would give them credit for so play around with them to see if anything changes. Also you could try softening the front suspension. This will make the front of the car 'dive' under braking causing more weight to transfer to the front of the car. More weight at the front means more traction for turning. But be careful, go too far with the suspension and you will loose everything at the back end and you will be constantly oversteering into corners.

Sorry if I have confused you, Try and read some guides, I am sure they will be most helpful.
