Default b5m grip roll

Hello

I've been having a few issues with my b5m setup wise. I was having a lot under steer so I added a lot of weight to the front and it seemed to help a lot but I was getting a lot of grip roll today. I have changed the wish bones and towers back to stock after running the b5 flat arms and found that helped the with the under steer. Has anyone else has this problem or have any advice on how I can slove the problem?

Thanks in advance alex

I would try jemmos set up from rhr. I tried it quickly this week first run out with b5m seemed as quick as c4.2 which ive got goin nice.

Once youve dun it then dial steering in, could be too much rear end grip, inserts etc, washers in front you can do after etc. try them all one by one see what suit you. I tried what he did movin front link out and i did prefer you just av to experiment.

Best thing Alex is to get John Rentons setup from Sunday as his B5M was going well and start from that

Try taking out 1mm of shims from under your front inner camber link ball stud (so it only runs 1mm).
