MINOLTA keeps spinning out when braking on Monza. Help?

[scarslasher]

I use a SIXAXIS.
I've been struggling to fix this tune. I've even tried driving aids and it STILL wants to slip out.

Think I've lowered the ride height to -13.
Changed the LSD so deceleration sensitivity all the way up to 50, but the thing still wants to slip when I brake hard.

Try lowering the rear brake bias.

Try lowering the rear brake bias.

Thats what I was thinking.

 

[scarslasher]

That.. sorta did the trick. Gonna try adjusting the LSD now since now it'll hardly turn at all during braking. D:

 

[scarslasher]

Yeah, think this car is just a high-speed go-kart. You don't want to steer when braking. Think I've found a good spot for it, though, at least for Monza.

This is a top secret tune I never finished. Don't show it to anyone. I assume it's rough around the edges, due to never being finished, but it might help you out. It might not be entirely mine... Let me know how(if) it works.

Aero: 65 / 80

RH: -10 / -3
SR: 14.8 / 15.5
Ext: 8 / 7
Com: 6 / 7
ARB: 4 / 4

Cam: 2.5 / 1.8
Toe: -0.07 / 0.09

LSD: 6/16/5

Brake Bal: 6 / 8

For the Trans... I'd have to look, but depending on your top speed needed, and chicane gear drops, it's hard to say. Reset to default, Top Speed, Minimum, Final Gear minimum, 1st and 2nd, all the way left. 6th all the way right. 3,4 and 5, evenly in between.

I had problems with some cars spinning under brakes until very recently. Try softer front bound and higher front ride height. I have only tried this solution with one or two cars so far, so it might not work on the Minolta, but give it a try.

Given the ride height bug where the settings are reversed, you don't want to raise the front. That will only introduce more entry oversteer. If anything, you want to lower the front...but don't mess with height until you have checked the brake balance.

settings aren't reversed.

settings aren't reversed.

It has been discussed exhaustively so I won't get into it here, but there are countless claims of lower-rear ride heights increasing speed and reducing understeer. (as well as the opposite -- lower front reducing oversteer) This is contrary to any real world physics. Read up: https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=202692

It's bogus, anyway how long would it take to try my suggestion? 2mins maybe? less time than it takes to argue over this nonsense your on about now, that's for sure.
