Judd Highly Unstable at 200mph+

[sgalbincea]

I have searched for an answer to this to no avail.... Has anyone had difficulty keeping the Judd in a straight line above 200mph? Especially on Sarthe, the problem is that the steering is SO sensitive. I was wondering if any of you had a good solution to tone down this behavior, thanks to all who comment!

same solution as for most of these high downforce cars (LMPs etc.)- raise them to max ride height in the rear, and probably 10-15mm below at the front, then soften the suspension all round.

im not sure if anyone here has been in a real car at over 200mph. but the car will be a lot more sensitive anyway at 200mph, and a lot more scary. lol

There are differing opinions as to why the front ride height on the Playstation Pescarolo is so low, for some reason it is 30 mm lower than the rear (50/80).

Raise the front to 80, as it is on the '03 Courage Pescarolo (80/80), and not only is understeer greatly reduced, but you may find the car a lot less dodgy on the long Sarthe II straight.

(BTW, are you using a controller or a wheel?)

are you talking about the playstation version? i had no trouble with that one. i havent drove the other one though.

the only car i had trouble with at speed was the black toyota gt1. that thing was a *****. on sarthe i didnt even have to touch the stick to make the little g meter go from all the way left to all the way right. it would just do that itself no matter how much weight i had in front and how much more downforce i had on the rear. i think i ended up selling it cause i couldnt drive it.

I'm using the DS2, and I have raised the front to 80. I have about 3000 miles on the car, how many miles can you put on a car before it gives you issues?

Ack!!! Your car is completely worn out! Get to the Tune Shop immediately and get the Rigidity Refresher Plan!

(Many cars need it after 600 miles, or even less in some cases...)

I hope "Refreshing" your vehicle in the next Gran Turismo is less costly .

Yup, that was the problem. I thought I had bought eveything for the car, I guess not! Still won GT4 WC with it though, without the refresh. HARD! Thanks for all of your help guys!
