First time attempt at suspension tuning.

[bigbadjeff]

Hi guys, first post.. I just got done attempting to make my 1200 horsepower Bugatti Veyron actually drivable. Any tips would be helpful, keep in mind this is my first time ever adjusting suspension in a racing game.

front/rear
Ride Height -5/0
Spring Rate 12/15
Dampers Ext 8/8
Dampers Com 6/6
Anti-Roll 6/6
Camber 2.0/3.0
Toe -0.55/-0.55

feedback please =D

I realize I could look up someone else's setup for a generally good handling Veyron but then I wouldn't learn how to achieve that for myself. Also I know mine needs a lot of work, I probably did it completely wrong

I hear what your saying, I never looked at other peoples tuning configurations because wanted to figure out for myself. But always ended up ruining the car's handling rather than helping it. You can learn more from other peoples setups for generally what works with AWD, FR, RR, or MR, cars. And what works for one person might not work for another because some people like there cars to be tighter or looser feeling, etc. You should check out my tuning setup for the Bugatti Veyron, then you can modify it a bit to make it your own.

Yes I'm looking around at other people's Veyrons now that I'm on GTP. Nobody seems to have NEARLY as much Camber/Toe adjustment as me

Guess that's all the pointers i'm getting from here

If I were a consistent enough driver, I'd point my tuning improvements at the actual tune. But I'm not so I only claim to get the car more "comfortable".

What you should do is test in practice mode while recording different tunes with the respective time. Change tune, record and then do it again. At the end of the day go back to your ORIGINAL tune and see if it indeed made you faster or if it was the driver who got faster.
