Okay, spoke to Daan about this. He said it's cool to start this thread if I wanted to. It will be something like the Drift Section for the Settings. I'll update everyweek. I decided to make this thread something like Duck's and post my settings in it. If you have any questions or anything about my settings or this thread. Feel free to IM me or PM me when ever you want. I'll update every week with at least 2-6 Posts. All of my cars will be equipped with R3 Tires because if there are beginners...They will have the trouble with understeer...So if you want...keep the stock tires and it will work for you "others" like that...I just test on the stock tires and there's some feedback from the car...But some people won't like it. Just wanted to let you know...

This car is farely tuned. All my cars tuned equally for street use. Nothing like track and 100k cars in real life. As for my kind of experience, that's the kind of tuning I would use in my cars...And even with my bro's Accord...

These settings are for Greycap, here they are dude. Just to let every one know...These settings are still stiff, if you don't want understeer in turns, don't hold the throttle, keep it 1/4 up or 1/2 and then when you leave the turn, just push your way out by staying on full throttle. May I reccomend R3 Tires though because S3's still make the car stiff...

You don't need R3's. I used S2's and it handled great for an FF car. The reason the suspension is so stiff is that you need to raise the rear a bit, stiffen the front sway bar, add some front toe, lower the LSD Accel, and then it handles miles better. 👍

Also, you forgot to add in the camber setting.

Thanks dude, sorry about the Camber, but no, I'm not changing my LSD Settings, I tuned this car for "Street" use. I don't tune my cars race ready likes yours. And S3's and S2's for this car is very hard for me to use. I'm not used to stiff suspension like you are...

Street or track, Drop the LSD Accell. FF Cars with Upgraded Hp need the Accell Dropped.

Higher numbers of Accel will Make the Wheels Push harder to make the car Go forward (FF throttle Understeer) Reducing the power put down will reduce that throttle understeer. This alloys you to throttle through corners with a FF car.
 
Hello Matt, thanks for the settings but I've got bad news too: my own settings gave me two seconds faster lap times. :)
 
Well I think that the race settings would be more "fancier" and more "sophisticated" like yours .Duck., mine are all equally set up in my opinion. And Greycap, I'm not a pro or that great at tuning, I'm better with drift set up's...But any ways, I tune to my best knowledge and experience...
 
Is that sarcastic...or...I'm just saying, your set-ups...I enjoy because they're more Race Ready for me...Mine are just tune up's to help the car out in the Grip Racing part.

No, it isn't sarcastic. I was really wondering that.
