Does anyone have, or want to try their hand at, some basic improvements to the baseline tune of these two cars (2D & 2J)?
I'm not looking for a setup for a specific track, although I have been primarily running them at Indy, rather I'm just looking to see if there is a better baseline setup than what PD defaults in (there pretty much always room for improvement on any car!).
I had been grinding Indy in B-Spec with my 2J, as it had the most HP of all my American cars. Bob always won with it, but usually only by a few seconds. I also didn't want to keep piling miles on it and have to due the 500K engine rebuild very soon, so I thought I would see if any of my other American cars would hang. My 2D caught my eye. It only has a little more than half the HP as the 2J, but it is light as a feather. Well, Bob just smoked the filed by 15 seconds!
Now those are both with coaching. Without coaching, he usually pulls 3rd or 4th. I'm hoping I can find a setup good enough that I can let him run it himself and still get 1st.
Only changes I made from stock was to change the brake bias from 5F & 5R to 6F & 4R, the toe to F-0.5 & R+.05, and the camber to F+1.8 & R+1.2
Likely not ideal numbers, but better than defaults I believe.
These cars have all the available tunable parts: aero, trans, LSD, suspension, and brakes.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
