Nicely done. This is probably one of the most important aspects concerning control during stages. Also, one of the most overlooked. Ive noticed people tend to think differential and alignment are the most important, maybe even gearing, but dampening and suspension is certainly the most important aspect to how the car handles on the stage. Thanks for the insights!
seeing your driving and tuning lessons have really given me a new boost of motivation to keep on driving. Joined your wrc club (and too many others) And discovered how much effectiv the learning curve becomes by racing reall people. Thank you so much for sharing your innsight:) And now i'm comming for you in the tracks:)
So, for big jumps a stiffer spring is actually the way to go as to not hit the max travel of the damper. I have been using softer springs (and dampers) for bigger/more jumps which seems to be the wrong direction…
Well its a mixture of both you can have soft springs as long as you fast bump isn't really soft as well. You just have to balance out the spring rates and the dampers, too much either way can cause an issue
I will point out that I never copy/writeover tunings. My approace is to learn the most i can about the different cars in different condissions. Still struggeling on some trcks, but i'm getting there.
Love that mate. Try this quick reminder, write it down if you need to Slow Bump - is for absorbing road surfaces Fast Bumps - is for jumps and big bumps Bump division - is how much travel in the suspension there needs to be for it to switch from slow to fast Slow rebound - is how quickly the damper allows the suspension to extend after impact
@@MikeyyRS skill, cheers 👍 so on the rebound if it’s softer then the wheels drop quicker maintaining contact with the road more? I had a half decent set up for Sardegna but the bumps were making my wheel feel like I was on a £20 scooter from Decathlon.
Yeah basically the soft the rebound the faster it will extent, the firmer the longer it will take. So really the only time you would want some firmness to it is on smooth tarmac stages. And decathlon is know for bad scooters 😂
Hopefully i have covered everything you need to be successful in make your own setups!

Thanks mate, you have a great way of explaining things and making clear what changes affect what. Looking forward to differential tuning!
Thank you mate!
Incredible guide! Your clear explanations helped me understand suspension/damping settings so well. Keep making these invaluable tutorials!
Will do my best!
Very nice topic. Should help a lot to understand this part of the car setup
Thanks jeff 👌

Nice!
Well done Mikey. Great video
Thanks mate
molto interessante! grazie della condivisione

Nice one mate. I’m getting on quite well for set ups to my driving style but dampers still totally kill my head. 💀
Love that mate.

Thank you 🙌
Thank you!!
You're welcome!
now testing update 1.6 wrc.

There will be once i reach the last video of the little series
Just found your vidieos mate and learnt soo much in the few ones I've watched, appreciate it. BTW, what's that HUB you're using? @MikeyyRS
No stress mate, and its a pc only thing. There is a link in my discord if you have pc and want it👌
@@MikeyyRS Joined and found it, cheers
