Spring rate help?

Shamu

For you guys who like "loose" cars what does that mean?

I like a balanced car that transitions well and is getting maximum mechnical grip from the tires. Not too much understeer and not much oversteer so I can managing turning with brakes and power application. I havent found too many road courses or hillclimbs where excessive oversteer is benificial .

So isnt what somone who is going to track wants is nuteral handling car with excellent transistory response for given tire selected? All this focus on loose or not loose seems to be foreign to me. Focusing on what spring and bar combo can slightly increase or decrease understeer and oversteer to your liking is probably better focus. Loose car as I know it isnt fast. But then I have been in very well buttoned down race cars with huge spring rates that arent "loose"
