As a tip, tire width is often expressed as width from sidewall to sidewall. Actual contact patch is much narrower, some 20mm or so.
I was just driving my C2 on M030's yesterday actually, and the thing just pushed to no end compared to the Singer. On 205/225 to boot!
It's a setup thing. I doubt you've ever driven any car IRL this fast which is as neutral as the Singer. Go watch the recent Laguna Seca test lap posted some pages ago and you'll see what I mean.
Absolutely. Was just talking of the visual side of things. Fronts are a bit thicker than real, or better yet the reatio rear/front looks a bit higher in real life, emhasizing that meaner, hot rod stance:
Btw, is it possible to have smaller steps for spring and damper rates in the final one?
Danke.
Nope, unfortunately I haven't, but we have a good video posted recently by Carfection which shows the car quite neutral, 4-wheel steering into corners. Just btw, but neutral doesn't mean for me what it likely means for you ie: sustained understeer. Neutral will turn into oversteer if you apply any more stress onto the rear tires while in that state: because the slip angles are equal. Not very desirable for performance cars, but can be fun.No I do not and I do not see what you mean. But I have driven a lot of Elfers and I do trackdays IRL. Have you driven an old Elfer? I have never driven a Singer that's true but have you?
Your Singer is not neutral. Hate to say it. Go and drive the CTR Arch's CTr-1, they go and slide over 4 wheels or go into understeer, which they should. They are physically spot on.

It's possible, I haven't checked sizes myself closely. High chance the tiresize is made to be @ contact patch.

Btw, I'm Arch. I've made all of those mods in the Cars page, including the CTR and RSR. Funny you mention the CTR when it's essentially a mid-engine car currently with incorrect aero as well.
Robin, would you qualify this as neutral or understeer?
You can jump straight to 1:04.

The tyres on the real life Singer are chubbier and squat I think. They almost look too fat for the rim, hahaha.
Singer tires seem to have rounder sidewalls, yes. They really underline what Dickinson said about stance and roundness in the Chris Harris interview.
Btw, i might host a session later on. This car deserves beimg driven in packs.
