SPORT (Cost-efficient filler option) RACE (Ensures spark stability at high RPM fields)
3.5EXHAUST
Drastically removes weight and backpressure metrics. Always drop weight first.
SPORT (Light structural weight relief) RACE (Massive weight reduction & performance flow)
3.6CAMSHAFT
Shifts the powerband upward and raises rev limit ceilings. Bad for rally.

Adding a race rear wing introduces drag which can DROP your PI by 2–5 points — immediately granting budget for more raw engine horsepower.

Do NOT upgrade unless absolutely needed to lower PI on a car slightly over class limits. Adds top-heavy weight and hurts chassis responsiveness.

TYRES
Pressure (PSI)
RWD - Front slightly higher than rear, often by 0.5 - 1.0 PSI. Higher front = sharper turn-in. Lower rear = more contact patch for putting power down on corner exit.
AWD - Equal pressure front and rear. Power is distributed equally to all four wheels.
FWD - Front higher than rear by 1.0 - 2.0 PSI. The front does all the work so higher pressure keeps it shape-stable under load. Lower rear gives the unloaded rear more compliance.
DRIFT - Both ends low (around 20 PSI), with the rear typically the same as the front or slightly lower.

Trackside optimization guide. Select your handling symptom below for an ordered, prioritized fix sequence.
The One-Thing Rule: Change exactly ONE parameter at a time. Drive 2–3 consistent laps before making further adjustments. Move sliders in ~1/10th increments. Spread fixes across multiple related components rather than maxing out a single slider.
Understeer — Car Pushes Wide / Refuses to Rotate
Oversteer — Rear Breaks Loose / Slides / Snaps
Chassis & Surface Anomalies
Build Correction Engine
Step 1 · Verify Tyre Footprint

Entry understeer or weak braking grip? Check tyre width. Increase Front Tyre Width by 1–2 increments, or upgrade brakes to prevent micro-locking.

Step 2 · Assess Compound Ceiling

Sliding uniformly in every sector? You've hit the absolute friction limit. Upgrade the compound tier: Stock/Street → Semi-Slick → Slick

Step 3 · Evaluate PI Allocation

Handles well but sluggish on straights? Your compound may be draining too much PI. Drop one compound tier, maximize track width instead, and reallocate PI to raw engine power.

Step 4 · Validate Telemetry Targets
