TOS - Bad Berneck

TOS Bad Berneck setup

I started with my latest setup from Andernach as a base.

Following adjustments were done in order to adapt the setup to the tight layout of MCC Bad Berneck and the higher grip of the sugar water prepared asphalt: 28deg steering lock instead of 25deg - Probably the biggest effect of all changes at this track. Helped to drive more sharp lines. 1,75mm under top ST03 instead of 1,0mm - It reduced corner speed, which wasn't important at this track IMO, but added the needed initial bite into the corner which I was aiming for. 3,2mm front spring setting instead of 4,0mm - Added more sharpness at corner entry which helped especially end of the back straight. At this track I felt that initial steering is the biggest advantage. 1,2mm swaybar front instead of 1,1mm. - Kept the front tires cooler at the super hot and high grip conditions. Not a big change in feeling at the track, but more consistent lap times for 5min runtime. Front 2,5deg camber and rear 2,25deg camber - More front camber generated more aggressive steering which resulted in more rotation as the rear end were close to break free. ZooRacing BayBee Bodyshell instead of Wolverine - End of the back straight was the most tricky part of the track, as there was a bump right at the brake point and corner entry. With the BayBee bodyshell I had the most confidence to not loose the car. Basically the "neutral" handling and the length of the shell itself were the reason for my choice at this track.
