when i race the ufr on city long the right front tyre wears within seconds and i cant really drive i a full lap
would the reason behind this be because of my setup
because my setup is extremely fast when i can get the car to corner, if the tyre doesnt puncher
any ideas?

Sounds like a hotlap set. If you use a wheel and pedals you can always try being smoother, add some tire pressure, take off some camber so the heat spreads more evenly over the whole tire and even use R3's or R4's if you need to.

i am using r4s and have the lowest tyre pressure
i just took off some camber then, and i can just make it to do a lap, but still the right front is wearing incredibly faster than any other tyre

nope wait i still get a puncher it that corner
i am running out of idea
i have tried everything

Post a replay. I suspect you're using too much steering and too much throttle, but that's a very simple guess.

They aren't wearing, they are overheating. R2's can last something like 20 or 30 laps before they wear out if driven right.

Low pressure means more grip but MORE heat and wear, higher pressure mean less grip but also less heat and wear.

You have to find the best compromise of grip/heat/wear, if you're overheating R4's after only a lap you also need to look at your driving and be smoother with them, less aggressive on the throttle and turning.

im not driving aggressivly
so what do i do, put pressure up and find a medium

is that what will get the heat down
putting the pressure up

still i dont understand
even if i do get the heat in this tyre right
y is it heating so much faster then all the others
it is overheated when the others arent even warm yet
in case u cant to see this for urself i am using the setup
UFR@SO LONG off the team inferno site

Just done 3 laps using one of Flotchs setups off Inferno. Best time a nooby 1m44 (haven't driven this car in months, let alone on this track), but the tyres lasted 3 laps on R2s. And that was with me trying to destroy the tyres on the last lap

Yes, but like I said, if you can't make R4's last a lap then you are drving to hard and aggressive even if you don't think you are.

Because it's under more load than the rest of the tires, it takes the most punishment and so heats up faster.

okay i will ease off the throttle
but y is it under the most punishment
and if it is it is by a fair but
i really appreciate all the help u guys have given
i will ease off the throttle, and edit the setup to my likeing
thanks

It will be the left turns that are putting the most load onto the front right tire, like the flatout or really fast T1 if I remember right and a few others near the end of the lap. Just be more carefull in the left turns and see if you can make the tire heat up less.

alright i have mastered it
i returned the set to its default and laid off the throttle
i got a slower lap time but i conserved the tyres a lot more
could probably do 10 laps with R4s now
but i got a lot slower, 1'52
but with practice it will get faster
thanks guys

Right.

I took Flotch's setup, and removed 2° of front camber setting, and stuck R4's on. Everything else was the same (should have taken less than 2 off, but it was a guess).

1m42 was my best (quicker than with R2's but only because I've had 3 laps more practice), and it was really hard to get ANY tyre warm. The right front got a bit warm on the twisty bits, but cooled so much on the straights. I reckon this setup would do a full tank of fuel EASILY (albeit slowly).

It could be that your engine is running too hot.

change your diff you may be smokeing one tire and once it gets a little hotter then the other its just going to burn up in a min try a locked diff and see if your problem goes away

R4s offer less grip and are therefore easier to spin, the main cause of overheating the that car. I'd suggest R3s for more grip, and a little more tyre pressure than minimum (less pressure = more grip = less spinning = less heating in a straightline but also more heating due to extra deformation).

As mentioned, a locked diff or a clutch pack at 80% power locking will help the inner tyre getting fried when powering out of corners.
