Performance tuning note for Tamiya F103RM using 3RACING equipment

For competitors refining chassis response, the 3RACING F103RM-13 friction damper pole provides a controlled reduction in transient vibrations that can upset tyre contact. This part integrates with the F103RM geometry and is intended to give a more predictable steering trace during aggressive laps.

On-track effects and setup considerations

Fitted to the Tamiya F103RM layout, the 3RACING F103RM-13 reduces small amplitude movement that translates to inconsistent grip. When tuning, evaluate changes over multiple runs and only make incremental adjustments to roll and steering settings to maintain balance.

Integration and service guidance

Installation onto F103RM-series cars is direct; confirm mount alignment and torque values for repeatable performance. Inspect the pole and attachment points as part of routine pit maintenance to ensure no slop or wear alters damping characteristics.

What telemetry or feel changes should I log after fitting?

Record lap-to-lap consistency, steering input variance and any mid-corner understeer. The pole should reduce short-term oscillation and tighten variance in those metrics.

Any recommended setup path when adding the pole?

Start with your baseline geometry, fit the pole, then perform controlled runs while keeping one variable at a time adjustable - e.g. front toe or roll centre - to isolate effects.

How to check part wear in the paddock?

Inspect for play at mount interfaces and check fastener torque. Any detectable movement at the pole will reduce its damping effectiveness and should be rectified before racing.
