Lancia Delta HF Integrale - Ribadelles (Tarmac)

KEY CHARACTERISTICS 1.Alignment: A front toe-out of -0.20° sharpens initial turn-in, while Front Camber -1.00° / Rear Camber -1.12° keep the tire patch loaded through the fast tarmac sweeps. Rear Toe stays at 0.00° for straight-line stability on the long Ribadelles straights. 2.Differential: The LSD pack is tuned for stability over outright aggression — Front Driving 28% / Braking 24%, Rear Driving 32% / Braking 24%, Centre Viscous 12 with a 50% Torque Bias. The headline change from V1 is the Rear Braking Lock at 24%: it kills the brake- and lift-off oversteer that bit on corner entry, making the car rotate predictably instead of stepping out. 3.Suspension & Damping: Damping is firmed up just enough — Front Slow Bump/Rebound +2, Rear +1 — to keep the nose settled under braking without making the car skate over the smooth asphalt. Spring rates are raised modestly (Front 135.31 / Rear 96.75 N/mm) with a 4mm ride-height lift front and rear for a stable, flat platform. 4.Brakes: Braking Force stays at the stock 2,610 N·m, paired with an 82% rear bias. This rear-leaning split is the key to stability here — it loaded the front too much at 74% in V1 and triggered the oversteer; 82% settles the car and lets you trail-brake confidently. 5.Gearing: Final Drive is slightly shortened to 0.232 for a touch more punch out of the tight stuff, while the 1st–6th ratios are left stock for a balanced spread across the stage. 6.Best For: Drivers wanting a predictable, confidence-inspiring Group-A hatch that stays flat and stable under heavy braking yet still pivots eagerly into hairpins — ideal for a smooth, momentum-based style with late braking on the long straights. 7.Pro-Tip: With the rear-biased brake split, you can brake deep and trail in with LT+RT without the tail stepping out. If the front still feels a hair too eager in tight 3rd/4th-gear direction changes, dropping Front LSD Driving Lock to 24% or Front Camber to -0.80° are both legal, low-risk tweaks.
