On the setup sheet it says that the track is rough and darren is using a black front and a red rear spring. Wouldn't that unsetle the car on the rough track?
2
A lot of the team guys are using 1.6 pistons lately while darren uses the standard ones. Does anyone know why?

On the dry setup darren uses no shims under the inner camberlink mounts,on most setups you see 2.5 mm on the front and 1 or 2 mm on the back. Does anyone know why?

Why does he uses the LRC blocks instead of the HRC ones?

Hey there
I cannot explain the what for and whys as to what he did on the day but I can clear up a couple of the points for you.
Firstly the UK team have been running 4 hole standard pistons for a while now, Im not sure which ones have been running 1.6 pistons? I know some of the guys in the states have been using 2 hole 1.6 pistons if thats what you mean?
As for why LRC over HRC. I think this is a driving style thing, the LRC grips harder initially and breaks away quicker which I believe suits Darren's driving style. The HRC block gives less overall grip (for the same toe obviously) but is more consistent throughout the turn.
Hope this helps.
