Track setup — Queenstown Q9
Precision suspension and ECU calibration tailored for Queenstown circuits. Optimise balance, tyre usage and throttle response for consistent lap times.
Quick facts
- Corner-balancing & roll-centre geometry
- Custom damping maps for sequential control
- ECU remap tuned for race fuel or pump petrol
Why Solmarixa for Queenstown track setup
We combine track-side telemetry, chassis tuning and dyno validation to deliver setups that translate to faster, safer laps without sacrificing drivability.
- Dyno-verified power maps
- Mechanical & electronics integration
- Session-driven iterative tuning
Pre-track vehicle checklist
Before a setup session, we run an itemised inspection to identify limiting factors and opportunities.
- Tyre condition & pressures (temperature profiling)
- Brake system inspection and cooling assessment
- Corner weights and ride-height baselining
- ECU baseline read and fault-clear diagnostics
Setup options
Choose from progressive packages depending on track hours and performance goals.
Street & Track
Balanced damping, conservative camber, and an ECU map for usable power and predictable throttle response.
- Corner balance
- Soft-highway damping with track override
- Safe power curve smoothing
Dedicated Track
Stiffer spring and damping rates, aggressive camber, brake cooling optimisation, and a track-focused ECU map.
- Lap-data driven suspension tuning
- Brake bias and cooling optimisation
- Torque management for stability
Race Prep
Full race-spec components, sequential ECU strategies, fuel-targeted calibrations and pit-oriented setups.
- Telemetry integration
- Fuel-specific remap and safety limits
- Endurance thermal management
Dyno validation
All power upgrades and remaps are validated on our dyno to ensure repeatable results and safe operating margins.
