Re: Make it handle
Lately we have been experimenting with "Tread Width". Meaning, the total width, outside-to-outside of the tire track. This is a bit different than "Track width" which would be center of the tire tread-to-center of the tire tread.
For our testing we are using the HellBoy, which runs a 315/30/18 on all four corners. So the difference between the front and rear tread width is the same as the track width difference.
At the moment, the front total width is 73" and the rear is 71". So the front is 2" wider than the rear.
The truck has a slight push on corner entry, and can sometimes be loose on the corner exit.
So, here is the question. (we can adjust the width very easily) We can set up in 5 tread width stances. they are:
A. Front 2" wider
B. Front 1" wider
C. Even front/rr
D. Rear 1" wider
E. Rear 2" wider
To be fair, this testing will take a few weeks, We need to compile multiple lap times under somewhat similar conditions. So here is the question, What do you think will happen, and why?
