How to stop the front from bouncing?

[MattStone]

I've been playing around with advanced setups but one thing I can't seem to nail is how to stop the nose of the car bouncing back up after landing a jump. Some cars are worse then others and some just seem to feel planted when they land.

One car that's been giving me real trouble is the group A Suburu.

Any suggestions would be appreciated thanks

Strengthen (increase) your rebound dampers.

Well thats what I thoough..stop the dampers for extending so fast but that didn't seem to work
I've tried variation with the Fast rebound settings as well

I guess it could be just a characteristic of the car

Beyond splrings and dampers maybe let throttle off and allow the nose to drop (and land first). Grab a bunch of clutch and brake even and use gyro. Sometimes even the opposite use gyro/gearing to pull the front end up and land level...

You need to set up the damping correctly. Have your damping set up further to the right than rebound and and fast bump more to the right than fast rebound. Have the fast rebound and fast bump set up more to the left than the regular damping and rebound as well.

Also, make sure that the softness and height of your front and back springs is the same.

the correct lines into jumps corners help alot also just tapping brakes beofre jump.

yeah: you should always make sure the car is moving in the correct direction before the wheels loose contact with the ground. Also: the transitional phase

from all wheels gripping -> some wheels gripping - 2 wheels - 1 wheel -> all wheels off the ground

should be driven while the car being balanced out. So - in general - no hard acceleration or braking when your car is "taking off".

And well: the car being bouncy almost sounds as if your compression- and rebound damping are tuned towards bump-steer when bottoming out the suspension (in it's travel-range) after a quick succession of jumps and bumps: Should that be the case (check your replays for this), try and lower the rebound-dampening and increase compression-dampening and/or raise your ride-hight for more headroom that will help the car not bottoming out as fast.
Of course: try and balance your adjustments out front-to-rear and keep the weight-distribution of your car in mind when doing so.
