All good suggestions as usual Dan.
The problem is I am not that good a driver to be able to just change the way I downshift. Years of doing it one way. I know I should try, but always get lost in the heat of the moment with those higher skills, LOL.
Decel fuel cut- might have to talk to Morpowa about that. If I adjust my throttle stop so it remains partially open next time I am at the track, could I test this out without a trip to the dyno?
As for the stiffer front dampers- The settings are within a click or so from last year. Surely they can't have that much effect? Maybe the more efficient and much larger front diffusers are affecting this also?
One suggestion from a spectator on Saturday: he thought the front splitter was getting bloody close to the ground when the chattering was occurring. There is some small possibility the splitter/diffusers are getting stalled when the gap closes too much causing a sudden loss in front downforce. From what I have read this can lead to 'porpoising'. I can't feel any porpoising, just the rear end chattering before trying to overtake the car.
