Typically speaking, you would want to lead the RR when dry slick and trail the RR when tacky. JMO
Generally leading the rr tightens car the whole corner, trailing loosens it. Every driver I have worked with could feel a 1/4 inch adjustment.
Out here in Nevada we typically have 100+ deg days in the summer with 20% or less humidity. Our tracks get so dry slick we call it "black ice" dry slick. In your part of the country it would be like driving on a hiway with freezing rain on it. Most all drivers lead the RR by at least a 1/4 in or more in the feature, and no stagger to 2 inches reverse stagger. I've gone as far as 3/8 in RR lead. As always this is. JMO
Just want to clarify that I didn't say I run reverse stagger, but i do run RR lead and it works for me. JMO
I wouldn't lead rr. I bet your corner momentum sucks. I'd put money on it I'd pass you mid corner everytime.
Oh, I'm sure you would, eh!! I'll do what works for me, and what the car wants. JMO.
I've ran many tracks across Nevada and no one knows how to keep it up so take some viagra for all your cars to help those bars. If you drop off bars you're not fast enough.
Please, oh great one, name the tracks, the dates, and how many wins you got when racing in Nevada.I'm sure you won them all. LOL. JMO.
