if it isn't, the inner wheel would spin to fast and the car would understeer. The front diff should be verry open (to the left). On a rallly car there is a limited slip differential, as you can hear on the name it limits how much the wheels can slip, and thats what you set up. Without the differential, the wheels would have been forced to spin at the same speed, and the inside wheels would have slipped. when you turn, the wheels on the inside have to travel a shorter distance. The differential is there so that the wheels on the same axel can spin at different speeds, e.g. On snow I keep it the same stiffness and thats aroud two notches from the softest (one notch or someting like that) On gravel i keep the stiffness around middel, and on asphalt one or two notches from the hardest On asphalt and gravel I like to keep the rear a bit harder than the front, to get some oversteer. If the rear is harder then the front, it will increase oversteer, and vice versa The suspension should be hardest (not as hard as you can, but harder than on any other surface) on asphalt, as it's the smoothest, a bit softer on gravel, and the softest on snow (again, not as soft as you can, but softer than on any other surface) You want to keep the suspension as hard as you can, since softer suspension reduces handling, and how fast the car will change direction. I think it's quite obvious what the suspension does, but for anyone who doesn't know: the suspension absorbs the unevenness of the road (To put it simple (verry simple)) (When i say suspension in this guide it refers to all of those components) I usaly keep the ssuspension, shock absorbers and the shock absorber reboud exactly the same, mostly because it won't do much to the handling if you change them sepatatly.
