no offense...but if I thought anyone here as un-trustworthy, either I or them wouldnt be here.

It really is bad timing. We are all scrambling to figure out what cars we are running for the upcoming series'. As well as get them tuned and painted. There's alot of forum activity that you cant view. After the dust settles, and you still want some help, I'll see if I can lend you a hand.

Chuck's right things are crazy right now. Since your only 14. I am thinking your car control is still new. Start out with your stock settings for your S7. Then add in all the downforce you can equally front and rear. Then drive the car.

Practice the basics, learn the basic techniques to driving a race car. Finding the racing line, braking zones, getting smooth with the throttle. Tuning the car comes after you have a good grasp of the basics of racing.

Take care,
EZT RacyStacey

if the car doesnt feel very good with the default settings, do a search on fm.net for the fuerdog calculator and start over with those settings and go from there.

The main thing is to make sure your tire pressure and alignment (camber/caster) settings are good before trying to tune the suspension.

www.myforzagarage.com

the tuning calculater i use is located there. simply type in your cars weight, weight distribution and downforce and it will set of a pretty solid tune. i use them as a starting point on all my cars.
