Check yer foams

I’ve been working on getting the setup going on my TLR 22T 2.0 that I bought used.  It had a set of JConcepts Gold Dirt Webs, and I was fighting front end bite.  Rear bite was great, but the front would not stick that well and the car was pushing a bit on corner entry and not rotating very well.

Well, another racer tried out my car and we were talking about tires and he mentioned that the rear foams were quite soft and the front quite firm.  I checked, and yup, this was true.  Swapping the fronts and rears made a huge difference – adding front end traction immensely while reducing rear, which helped a ton in the corners to get the car to change directions.

So if you have a car with same size 4 wheels, check your foams and rotate the tires as needed to add traction/reduce traction from the end as needed.  Cheap and easy tuning tip!
