hey, im new to this place but not new to gt games, but fairly inexperienced in tuning. Ive got a thing for the Ford Focus RS so i bought one just cuz i wanted it, alltho i did the euro hot hatch with it and maybe some other races, cant remember now. its got pretty much the works cept an lsd and a brake balance controller(i find that i can use the asm understeer to get rid of any unwanted turn in probs while braking into the turn, which i love doing, not all the way thru but like half way towards the apex) and its nicely neutral/oversteerish(nose pointing where i want it) but as i apply a bit more throttle, about half way, it does tend towards the outside cerb. my prob is that applying throttle while the car is still in the turn doesnt do anything, no accel at all almost, even tho i got about 300 hp or so i should be able to notice a few clicks more on the speedo before coming all the way outta the turn. im pretty sure im quite aggressive while driving so the lack of rising numbers is kinda annoying.
 
not sure how to help you cos i havn't had any probs with the rs. its on e of the best handling cars i've got although not very quick. all i can think of is that you played around with the settings to much. my settings are prtty much stock and like i said it handles ace.
 
Do you have AMS's enabled? If so the TCS is kicking in keeping the wheels from spinning, or over/under steer is kicking in, hitting the brakes to counter them.
 
The Focus RS was the first car I bought ingame.
It is a good fast little car but even standard it has too much power to use without the LSD.

I think the LSD was one of the first things I bought for it.

Try buying the one-way LSD it could be that when you are putting the throttle down mid corner you are just spinning the inside wheel.
 
hey..The Ford Focus Rs i thing that is one of the best FF car handling and running...but the car have problems if u turn off the tcs cuz it slips too much!!!
