Thanks nachos - didn't even realise it was DLC Smile

I shared this after doing a fairly good time (for me) on one of the tracks with short straights (cant recall whether it was Laguna Seca or Bugatti). After more driving in it I found it was not much good on the faster tracks. Keen to try out your B class!

Cheers mate. I've tuned them with no assists and they are very easy to drive. All handling and medium sized tracks. I run very high brake pressure, so they can lock up if you're not used to it. Let me know what you think if you run them !

Just went to check out your car, and realised I haven't got any DLC. Might have to bite the bullet and spend some extra money on this game now. I've shared a couple of B class cars if anyone wants to check them out. The 1969 302 boss mustang, Kia cee'd, and an R33 skyline. They all run pretty darn goo.

Wow that R33 is very very good! - Brakes are great and corner entry is awesome. I just gave you a time to chase on Alps Festival circuit. 880th overall from 500,000+ players - I think this is my best time ever in Forza rivals, and I only aced a couple of corners... For anyone else keen to try I will add that it is the 1997 R33 you need for this, (not the 1993 tongue

) Keen to try that Mustang now..

B600 1977 Escort - Mental little car. Have just got PBs on Laguna Seca and Catalunya National, and came pretty close on Bathurst..

If you've got a Ferrari 250 GTO in the garage, I highly recommend building it up to A700 - pretty much max everything out and you land right on 700. Great car doing well in public lobbies with no tune at all. Loose but very manageable, great fun. Would be interested in anyone's tuning tweaks Smile

While looking for a solution to the snap oversteer problem I am having in my 1991 M3 (for the 35K challenge), I came across these guides at http://www.drivingfast.net/ - thought they provided some useful tips on how suspension components affect the car at different parts of the corner and at different speeds.

If anyone has any tips in general for lift-off oversteer (but where the car is handling well mid corner and on exit) please let me know. (I can't afford a race diff!)

Don't forget, what works in the real world doesn't always work in the forza world, and vice versa.

Yeah I was going to say something about that too semper but I'm a d($k and like beating the cars with TUNES set up for real world physics

No doubt true! Not sure what authority the website that provided this has either...but still, these charts seem to be along the same general lines as the very basic descriptions that are given in the Forza tuning section..
In any case, if I start getting a lot faster on the track, it won't be because of tuning...

Cool beans Cool

Forza tuning is... different haha, I mean, im sure everybody is on to the full hard/full soft tuning these days

huh, do tell?

Full hard front spring/Full soft rear spring

Full soft front roll bar/Full hard rear roll bar

Some people can make it work, others don't like it. Personally I find it great on my v8 and I know someone else does too Wink

Cool, will have to give it a go
