my focus wrc understeers

[ajwhite12]

ive got a focus wrc car and am trying to only complete the intermediate rally in special events. im up against audi s3's!! and get beat no matter what car i use!! i did the tarmac event won by 10 seconds but on dirt my cars just understeer and wont drive like a rally car nomally does, like in the sebastion loeb challenge and oversteer. ive tried everything raised the rear suspension and nothing happens it still understeers. What do i do?

I see you found the right forum. Yes, this is a question, but it is a question about tuning, so it goes here. 💡

EDIT: But you then post it again in the Q&A forum? It looks like one us may be a "nob", but it's not me 💡

Turn off Traction Control and Skid Recovery.

Increase the Spring Rate in your Rear.
Increase the Roll Bar Strength in your Rear.
Toe Out the Front - Negative Toe.

Try those.

You could also try 'swinging' the weight of the car around more... the off-road approach is completely different to the on-road approach.

Another good way is to call a mod a "***". Oh, wait, no it's not...

yeah ive tried. the wierd thing is the focus seems to react so much different to loebs citreon. its fine when i use that car in the loeb challenge, but no matter what i do with the focus it constantly understeers! i cant see there would be that much difference. also it bogs down mid way through the corner. traction control is off so cant understand it.
