[Chris Doughty]

try this to start with

http://atomic-carbon.gforceimages.net/setups/S4_Chris_Doughty_Oz_15-06-2007.jpg

I know its from a wet grass-track setup - but it was super-grippy because it was so wet

I would proberbly go with blue front springs and pink rear springs.

outside hole shock position on the front wishbone if its got too much steering.

depends how much grip the carpet generates, some carpet does not give that much grip.

[freud]

Ok Thanks Dougthy ;)

I can't get my indoor setup to upload for some reason, but, this one of Jonathan Browns is close.

http://atomic-carbon.gforceimages.net/setups/Coventry%2025%20Feb%2007.JPG

Only things I'd change from this are blue front spring, with internal spring, outside hole on front wishbone, orange piston in rear shock, one internal limiter and an O ring external limiter and somtimes a 1.2mm rear rollbar.

This is the setup I ran all last year at my local indoor club and all the other S4 drivers at the club run the same.

I ran this setup on mine, apart from i stayed on green fronts, inner and outer row off front tyres. 2 small shims under rear anti squat block. The car felt very good, even better as the tyres wore in!!
Good luck

[Thomas P]

How is the tracks @ your place Freud ?, carpet,astroturf,clay,bluegroove,loos,hard,tarmack ?

[Cooper]

reply for Freud


The track is astro but very slippery astro because it's very wet. it's astro that used to be 'hockey astro'.

It dries in summer but I don't think it will be dry the coming race. We race the schumi mini pins on it, they work 'fine', not wet enough to use ballistics.

[freud]
