Weight Transfer Video - Fundamentals Part 2 Dynamic Weight Transfer
Weight transfer is a critical but very misunderstood part of vehicle dynamics. In this (Part 2) of this video Ray covers the dynamics of weight transfer including the effects of roll centres, springs and shocks and how you can use them to tune the handling of the car at different stages of a corner.
Any questions ask away!

My head hurts, but what each component does, is so much clearer. Thankyou Ray.

Great understanding and educational skills on physics! Great to see finally someone making these information publicly available. Have been into karting for more then a decade and wished to have an insights into those things back then!

The whole concept of setting up roll centre still have me baffled. Adding / removing +1mm shims on inside ball studs affects roll centre but I can never seem to notice the change. Would be great to have a follow up episode to explore this further. Thanks Ray for another very informative video.

@rmunday76 3 жыл бұрын

It's a complicated subject as the geometry of the suspension also controls camber gain, scrub etc. Depending on feedback from this video it may be a future subject to run through some examples. A 1mm inner stud change should be noticeable as long as the car is in a decent window of setup - if it's outside that window sometimes it can be hard to pick . Maybe send me a pm with your setup and can help in more detail.

@@rmunday76 had the same problem that my setup where way off and after alot of thinking and study of suspension (both Ray and JQ among others) i tested to get a new setup not far from standard (well the guys that constructed the car knows where to set rollcenter etc to function on most tracks) and now i can feel +-1mm or eaven .5mm of adjustment.

Great insight, Ray! Getting confused with roll transfer- what does “high roll transfer” mean?

hey there,great vid!i have a question i race 1/10 nitro car on road,in case of traction roll wht shoud i change first?roll centre? spring?antiroll bar?damping?

@rmunday76 2 жыл бұрын

Hi mate, it depends on what is causing it. Sometimes it's because the car turns in too fast - in which case lower front roll centre can help. Sometimes its because the rear slides and then the tyres catch and flip, in which case a lower rear roll centre can help. Generally heavier damping will help and stiffer springs will help.
