Probably one of my favourite cars and when it's well tuned it becomes a grip monster. On the nurburgring nordschlieffe I can get about 6:35-37 respectively, I could assume a better driver equals better times.

Requires ALL modifications possible

ALL aids are off, all traction is retain within the vehicles tuned specifications so there's no need for aids whatsoever except abs 1

Aero - Full (40)
Transmission 360KM/H
LSD: front: 5/20/17 | rear: 10/27/22
Torque split: 40/60
Suspension:
F / R
height -20/-20
spring rate: 11.3/14.0
damper (ext): 5/7
damper (com): 3/5
roll-bar: 4/6
Wheel Alignment:
Camber : 5.0/3.0
Toe angle: -0.40/0.10
Brake Balance: 7/9

Soft racing tires in the back and soft racing tires/medium in the front, personally preference.

It would be better if we had access to front lip aerodynamics, that's the only thing keeping this car from being completely glued to the ground, so watch out for big hill in section 1 and have fun :) give me some feedback.

Camber front at 5 degrees, really? That's pretty extreme from what I've driven. I'm surprised that you're able to drop the ride height down to -20 with those spring rates. Every time I do, the car bottoms out at high speed corners in the replay video (sparks fly). I have a satisfactory tuning for the fully modded R8 5.2 but I'm still working on it.
 
If the car starts to bottom out you need to adjust the LSD according, and yeah, the camber is pretty extreme but that's to combat the understeer. The purpose is to go as fast as you can without completely killing the acceleration. I found that my tune rarely will it ever slip out of your control, I've bombed out of corners in 2nd doing super high RPMS and the thing will not bottom out. This is by far the most noob friendly tune I have, you can stomp on the gas pedal and it will not spin out of control.

If you hit the bumper corners at high speed and you start to jump then you have a problem with your dampers

Maybe I have a very bad understanding of the LSD, but what does it have to do with the cars suspension bottoming out??

It doesn't. LSD is a personal preference that determines how freely one wheel on one side spins compared to the other wheel. When you are turning a corner, the outside wheel needs to be able to spin more times to accommodate the extra distance in comparison to the wheel closer to the corner. But if you let the wheels spin too freely from each other, one wheel tends to eat up all the power and you lose considerable power to move the vehicle forward. If you don't allow some room for the wheels to spin differently, both wheels will want to spin at the same rate, cause the car to understeer and travel straight instead of accommodating the corner where it naturally has distance differences between the wheel on one side versus the wheel on the other side.

Bottoming out reflects poor balance between ride height, spring rates, and possibly damper settings and/or anti-roll stiffness depending when the bottoming out occurs. If it's at corner entry, damper settings are involved with ride height and spring rates. If it's mid-corner, anti-roll settings are involved with ride height and spring rates.

I knew that, guess my sarcasm just wasn't very obvious in my post. :D

Very useful information for anyone needed a better understanding of the LSD though 👍

Sorry, you guys posted follow-up replies before I finished typing my reply. I am really surprised that he was able to pull off -20 height on such a bumpy track too. I'll test this tonight on the 'ring again to check for bottoming.
 
Jeff, have you tried my tune, are you bottoming out?

I find the ride height helps a lot with manueverabilty, especially since nurburg throws alot of twists and turns, it might even help to boost it a bit higher but then that might be preference. I find theres a pretty good mix between the suspension and the dampers but then again it might be specific to my driving style
 
Haven't had a chance to try it yet, as Im at work atm, and I don't have my R8 fully upgraded. I built it up to a certain hp for an A-spec race and haven't done much with it since then.

Might explain the bottoming out, it's a heavy car unmodified, and takes more tuning for it to not spin out. IMO if you could screw with the tire pressure settings this thing would take corners like a formula racer

Mine has no problems bottoming out, I was just referring to what was posted earlier. I did do all the weight reduction, and full suspension upgrade. Just didn't max out the hp.
 
I'm bottoming out on high speed tracks. Particularly when I'm going nearly 200mph into wide turns. You made this tuning specifically for the 'ring, which is probably the exception to most tracks in the game so I understand how you're not bottoming out there while I am in other high speed tracks.

Stiffen the entire suspension and raise that front end and the bank end, -17/-10 might work better for other tracks, if it's still not giving you the right feel ur looking for, change the damp compressions by +1 front and rear. Nurburg has very smooth elevation where you can get away with the suspension being as low as possible, other tracks not so much.

I already have my own tuning for the fully modded R8 5.2 that works on most tracks except the bumpy ones. I didn't need to use excessive settings on any parameter since this car was really easy to drive and easy to tune. Thanks for sharing though.
 
Car was still sketchy as hell with these settings. I spent a lot on this car for the extreme german race, dont think i'll be driving it anymore.

This is specifically for nurburgring, don't blame me if you don't reset the settings for something more suitable outside of it.

Try this:

-30 Ride height -30
10.8 Spring rate 11.0
8 Damper(Ext) 8
6 Damper(Comp) 6
5 Anti-roll bar 6

3.0 Camber 2.6
-0.04 Toe 0.06

Not Per_fect but you can race really hard :)

I have been using this Suspension set up on a standard engine R8 V10 and it sticks like glue.. Cape ring 4th 100+mph not touching the walls.. amazing set up just what the car needs
 
Thanks for posting. I just had mine out and was having some control issues at high speeds, especially when braking. I eventually set the brakes to 6/3 because the rear end was still coming forward at 5/3 during high speed stops and that helped a lot. I will try your suspension settings later tonight.
