Springs
						In order to decide which springs to select, you need to understand a little bit about the effect they have on the car. A car with soft springs will exhibit a lot of body roll when cornering at high speed which is good, because this generates high levels of grip. However, it will also dive a lot when braking and squat excessively when accelerating, making the car unpredictable when entering or exiting a corner. It is difficult to consider spring selection in isolation, without taking into account all the other settings on the car, so for now just bear in mind that your choice of springs has the following effects: Grip level: As a general rule, softer springs give more grip, but go too soft and the car will grip roll . Weight transfer: Springs control the amount of body roll, both left-to-right and front-to-back. Harder springs lessen the effect, softer springs increase it. Bump handling: Springs (coupled with damping) have the greatest effect on how your car handles bumps in the track. Too hard and the car won't absorb them, too soft and the car may bottom-out causing a loss of control.
