Tsukuba Park

The carpet surface at Tsukuba RC Arena inevitably changes depending on the number of cars running and the tires used; consequently, when chasing peak performance, the setup tends to become extremely specific-a "pinpoint" setting. If you don't hone your ability to make fine adjustments based on the day's conditions, you can easily get lost in the process.

That's why I've been working hard to build up a repertoire of adjustments, but achieving both high performance and a reliable set of tuning options isn't easy. Damn it! lol

Here are a few key points based on my own observations:

Body Selection

I almost exclusively use ZooRacing bodies. For this event, I plan to switch between the standard "Wolverine MAX" and the latest "Jackal" depending on the situation.

The Wolverine is my go-to, but when track conditions get tricky and the car starts exhibiting annoying, twitchy behavior, the Jackal-which offers significantly more downforce-becomes a highly effective weapon.

As for other bodies, it largely comes down to personal preference, but the general trend for this All-Japan Championship suggests that bodies which "plant" the car with downforce yield better results than those with a lighter, more agile feel. So, there's a pretty good chance I'll end up racing with the Jackal...

Also, just for reference-though I won't be using it myself (lol):

Among the "Twister" series, the new "Zenith" likely offers the most downforce. I tested it, but the balance of its movement didn't suit my driving style, so I ruled it out. That said, it is unrivaled in terms of how firmly it holds down the front end; if you can find a balance that works with it, it could be a massive advantage. If you feel that agile movement translates to better performance, the Wolverine MAX or the Ghibli 3.0 (Lenz Body) are great choices. Many drivers achieve a strong pace with either of these.
