NASCAR @ INDY need help (online racing)

[zodicus]

Im at a loss now on what to do with my set up. Im on racing hards (as required by the series im gonna start running) and i have the front downforce maxxed out and the rear at minum and the thing still plows like a dump truck. I've been all over the place with the suspension settings. Everything from pretty normal to insane. right now the diff is at 5/5/5 toe is -1.0/-1.0 camber is -2.0/-2.0 with those toe diff and aero settings i would think as soon as i turn in the car would just spin out, but i can lift off nail the e brake slam on the gas throw the car in there sideways and it will just straiten back out.....

I'm trying to get it so i dont have to turn full left all the way around the corner (DS3) but it just wont do it. HELP!

LSD is very bad, toe is horrible!

Have you tried this? - Indy setup
If this doesn't work try a couple Daytona tunes and if they also don't work, buy a wheel!

I havn't tried to tune a NASCAR at Indy yet, but my muscle car series recently ran there, I was reaching speeds up to 200 mph and to get it to turn a raised my front ride height gradually until it was comfortable. Left my other settings alone. To me your toe settings seem way to high, and your diff accel should be raised, though.

Edit: I tried changing everything to make my Cuda turn but it wouldn't. I went back to my original setup and simply raising the front made it work. Can't tell you why, but raising the front also worked on the Z28 RM. It's worth a try.

well i got the set up headded in the right direction, i can actually turn hard enuf to spin the car out now if i dont watch it.

I agree with what you guys said about the toe camber lsd ect.. it is horrible, witch is what confused me. Buy all acounts that car should have been so loose it would be impossable to drive. So what "should" make it turn better wasnt working so i tryied what shouldnt. I hacked the rear spring rate in half and it went a lot better. So i cut it in half again and spun out YAY! Now im startting to tighten it up little by little. I should have it pretty good here shortly.

I'd like to see what you come up with when your done, if ya don't mind sharing.

Ok so here's the set up as it is now. It feels really good, the first lap use a little caution after that it handles great untill the tires start to wear out then it gets a little loose but still drive able. Whats odd is it seams to be really good in 1 and 2 and a little loose around 3 and 4, sounds like a real nascar game lol.

this is with a controller with sensitivity at 7 and no aids, racing hards (runs on softs good to)

I just used this for the NASCAR Championship in B-spec. My BoB is a level 25 driver and with very little coaching achieved gold on all the tracks. Some races required up to 3/4 of the total laps to take first, but all succeeded.

It's a fantastic setup from Mad Finn Tuners...(highly recommended).

I raced the Jeff Gordon Impala and previously could only place bronze (at best). With this tune, I got gold.

I haven't tried this tune yet in A-spec, but I hope to tonight.

ill try the one you posted bigdaddy. I do really like how the car is set up now though has anyone tryied that last set up i posted? I wouldnt mind some feedback on it.
