Hey! I'm looking to improve traction and handling under adverse conditions for my 190E2.6-which seems like european rally stuff. Appreciate any suggestions.

Just exactly how adverse are these conditions? I'm about 90% through the buildup of a 1984 190E for SCCA performance rally racing, which is typically done at the highest speeds the car and crew can handle over gravel and dirt and/or snow and ice, and I can tell you just about anything you need to know. I have attached an image of our car, which we affectionately call "Ricky," short for Manfred von Richtofen aka The Red Baron. I'll be happy to share what I have learned through the school of hard knocks.

Best Regards,
Rob
