Ballast is something that has never been addressed. Does ballast change the characteristics of the car too much?

 

[MONSTAR-1]

Well yes it can. But you have to know how to use it.

Also in the rules you updated you have front aero allowed but no front extensions. Is that supposed to be the other way around or ?

It is like it is stated, tabs at the top, front, rear and wing are allowed. Extension tabs items not allowed.

The ballast question was raised due to the thought of cars keeping their flaws of their weight distribution.

Depends on what your doing with it.

Apparently on certain cars moving the ballast but not adding weight raises PP

 

[TimberW]

I'm thinking all cars should retain their characteristics. Especially weight distribution, then, it'll come down to suspension tuning to overcome each car's flaws.

It'll be funny to see street racers put sandbags in their cars to change their weight distribution. Lol.

 

[MONSTAR-1]

I like how your trying to keep it like street but its impossible to police. Just something to think about.

Confirmed.. very good race and good pass by monstar! i just could not keep up the pace, lapping around 30sec a lap slower!

 

[leexr2i]

I have seen people use sandbags and paving slabs in the back of old ford escorts and capri's to weigh the back end down..

 

[MONSTAR-1]

True. I knew a guy who would put 2, 20kg bags of blue metal in the back of his ute just to try and get some traction!

 

[leexr2i]

Maybe 20kg of ballast should be aloud?

Yes, DoctorFool has joined us.

Is that a good thing?

Guess it's easier for everyone to beat me. Just to let everyone know, I am a total beginner at this, I just came from drifting so it is a big difference, especially on a car I am not used to yet. I am open to challenges, and I am also open to practice challenges so I can improve my skill.

Is there some sort of evidence you can provide to demonstrate that the canards are anything beyond cosmetic in function? I asked earlier in the thread and never got a real response.
