Hey,

Having trouble tuning my Cuda and Superbird,

For both of them, I tuned the transmission like this:

Reset to default
Final gear to 4.800
5th gear to Max
Then Final all way back down
1st gear full left
2nd full left
And 3rd and 4th - I aligned them to match the other gears on the graph.

When I am launching in 1st or 2nd, very slow... Then it builds up slowly

Any tips?

I acknowledge they are hard to tune..

Anyone likes my signature? :sly:

Thanks in advance

Thats way too high of a starting final gear for the superbird

subtract 1.000 from that

Also its too low for the Cuda

add .400 to that

launch both cars in 1st

also, take a look at where the peak power is. you'll find the cuda needs to be shifted quite early in the powerband. Superbird as well
 
Ah, right thanks mate.

So Superbird's starting final will be 3.800 and Cuda to 5.300

Will adjust as soon as I get on! 👍

So rest of the steps are fine then?

This is what I use personally:

indy: 3.700
ssrx: 3.800

indy: 5.200
ssrx: 5.500

The rest of your steps are fine, except, dont touch 2nd gear. 1st full left, dont touch 2nd, 5th full right, align 3 and 4

If you are tired and cannot last, by all means, get some sleep!
We can run on the weekend sometimes where everyone is free!

Challenger RM - premium or standard? Year?

premium challenger 1970, then race mod it.... i personaly perfer the cuda but they are both fast and pretty darn close, and the challengers easy to get.
 
Ah thanks for the info,

Tried seanneedscar advice, it is still quite slow...

Maybe suspension is a problem?
 
Suspension on 99% of muscle should be similar to this (play with your front Spring Rate)


Max/Max
Min/Max
Min/Max
Min/Max
1/1

1.5/0.00
-1.00/1.00
 
Ah, Ok thanks! 👍

Ps: like my new signature?

Are we still friends on PSN?

Somones a chevy fanboy

to answer the question, its the Challenger RM

Hate Chevy and I am disappointed to say the least that as far as muscle goes they are extremely fast on the 1/4 compared to mustangs, the only reason I didn't mention the Challenger RM is because it's officially a race car after you race modify it :(

Mustangs aren't real bad on the 1/4 IRL. In game, yes. But even a mild tune IRL can get you to run low 11s on street tires. With the setups we have in game, the Mach 1 should easily be able to run 9.5s.

Well yeah in the game, lol, would never doubt or down a mustang in real life :)
