Hi guys,

Just wondering when we tracking at Sepang, is it a must to do corner weight?

Does it help & how does it works?

Where I can send my car to do the "corner weight"?

I recently watched a video by GTchannel by KW.
Its good because if u are a heavy man, u can counter balance it.
Imagine all set up the same weight, u sat on it and the right side became heavier.
So it upsets the whole geometry.

A MUST for track purpose car. A well balanced race car is more predictable. An additional 100 pounds on one side of the car does make a lot of different on the track. Try swinging a 100 pound weight side to side.

I did not ask in details but I think should be adjust the suspension only to balance the corner weight.

He said need about half-day to do it...
