damping is really untouched at the moment -- figure this one out via telemetry, then do some base laps for fine tuning

Currently, we're using 225/40-15 (i believe) from the corrado, which stole them from some old Audi.

@djhedges - what's the objective / ideal we should be shooting for. 205/50-15 semi slicks in the front and rear?

in addition, let's add other sizes in the same compound to understand the handling characteristics: if 205/50 is the baseline, also include:

• 195/50
• 225/50
• 225/45
• 205/40

Not sure if I should have this as an issue per se, but here are my notes on the calculations. If I'm completely off please tell me!

Stock Springs (Nm/mm)

F: 44 (250lb/in)
R: 26  (150lb/in)

AC Civic Baseline (suspensions.ini) (assuming it's using the same spring rates as above):

(F) SPRING_RATE=55000
(R) SPRING_RATE=35000

New Spring rates (which DJ/AEH crew will be installing):

F: 96 (550lb/in)
R: 88 (500lb/in)

Looking at the front, dividing the sprung value (55,000) by the stock springs (44) gives a multiplier of 1,250. If we then use this multiplier (1250) by the rate of the new springs (96), we get a value of 120,000, which could be used in suspensions.ini: SPRING_RATE=120000

Respectively, the rear would use SPRING_RATE=118448 given the 500lbl/in rear springs.

@djhedges - cross-check me here.

I spoke with Markus on the phone a minute ago and he said the only way to properly calculate spring weight is to measure the suspension geometry, but even having those measurements it's not a simple calculation given non-linear bits of the suspension. However, if we can use the values above as a baseline, we should be able to pull suspension travel data from telemetry and validate how off we actually are. (that will definitely need our friendly engineer's help for said analysis)

currently, it's only possible to run from 0.1 to maybe -0.2. fix this.

in the setup menu, the dampers are completely maxed out

TODO: post screenshot for reference.

fix / figure out why

for example, based on ./aeh/setups/*
