Why would that be?

Rear is 25% of front: front -2, rear -0.5.

0.5?? that isnt very much Wouldnt be good on the track.

If you increase stiffness in the rear (damping, arb, springs) you tend to get more oversteer.

That is true. And that is also the reason that it is becoming rather difficult to set the car up. In the beginning it was very easy. Now......

And there are so many different theories and opinions.

But I am still making progress.

Hope that it will be dry on sunday: I will do some more testing

The Nürburgring is almost 21 km in length! It is the best race track in the whole world! It never gets boring and it is open to the public! You pay per lap or get a pass for the year.

Nice vid, thanks....

How much is it per lap and per year? Is the per year for a specific car or person?

Do you see much american hardware? I know Corvette has run their to test...

A lap is 14 Euros. A year (unlimitted laps): 700 Euros, which is for the person during 'tourist driving'.

The US car companies and pretty much everybody else, tests here. So you see all kinds of protypes during industry testing days.

You see a few Vipers and Corvettes during Tourist driving.
