TVR Cerbera Speed 12, could use some help

[Matteume]

Hi!
I used alot of different cars to drift with and found out that the TVR Cerbera Speed 12 suits my drifting style because of the great amount of power, and also it´s the car i have the most fun in driftin.
I managed to get a little over 20000 on SSR5 in seasonal events which give me something around 75th place.

I tried alot of different settings for this car but it doesn´t matter how i tweek it... It understeers to much. I watched some videos from the leaderboard of other drifters with this car and it looks like they use alot of camber in both front and rear.

I bought 2 upgrades for this car after i realised that i wanted more power.
Engine stage 3 and a supercharger (i only use the supercharger once in a while, i like to drift in high gears on low rpm) + Rigidity improvement

I know its not a common drift car but I would really appreciate if someone want´s to help me with this car. (LSD, Suspension, Downforce etc.)

Almost forgot, i use a controller and comfort hard in front, comfort soft i back.

Thanks in advance

Your running comfort hard at the front ? this is why it understeers

Thanks for the pointer. But i thought most people used comfort hard in front for drifting?

 

[ps3dan101]

Comfort hards all round are what i use and what 99.9% of other people use

I tend to use Sports hards for drifting with high-powered stuff. The very slight grip increase allows me to move forward in anything over 500hp.

Don't do what this guy says ;3.

Use comfort hards, or mediums when you've got too much power.

I noticed that mostly everyone uses comfort hard all round, but i don´t think i will be able to control my drift with comfort hard.
Many people in the TVR speed 12 uses comfort hard in front and comfort soft in back, don´t really know why, can you explain that to me?

I only got a limited amount of experience when it comes to drifting but i´m getting there!

 

[ps3dan101]

Well personally i can use comfort hards on 100bhp cars and 600bhp plus cars its all about control in a lower power car throttle control doesnt need to be as careful but more powerful stuff needs careful throttle. Try the comfort hards all around and just practice

Yeah it takes some time to get that thing moving again when i crash

Thanks, i will take that in mind when they allow tires with better grip in this seasonal drift events

Ok, i´m gonna give it a shot, thanks!

Well with comfort hard all round a couldn´t drift as well as with comfort soft in back.
Anyone that can give me a pointer how to set up the LCD for drifting? Right now its stock 10/40/20
And the downforce.. Should it be much or little downforce when drifting front vs. back?

 

[ps3dan101]

Down force won't make a difference I use 60/60/60 in all cars diffs and it works damn good

You do Soft in the rear so give the rear more grip, there for it doesnt spin out every time you put your foot down

that way throttle control actually works


LSD = 60/60/60

 

[Poppins]

that is a very poor lsd and completely locked up (as most as it can go in game)

30/60/5 will help alot with turning and braking into corners while not noticing any difference in getting the back end out

yes alot of people use hards on front but honestly its because they are ****ed in the head, put softs all around or something, just dont put harder tires on the front

you need a very good suspension set up as well with this car, im guessing they have alot of camber so it goes into corners good but then the back wheels are only touching on one side so you lose your rear alot easier

 

[Magneto]

I honestly don't get why so many people use comfort hards. I use comfort soft in anything with more than 250bhp. Bt hey, that's just me. A matter of taste and driving style I guess...

 

[pergatory]

I'm a comfort soft person as well, although honestly, I think the most important thing is not to mix & match. Use the same tires on all four wheels.

Also, ignore this guy:

Don't do what this guy says ;3.

Use comfort hards, or mediums when you've got too much power.

Anyone telling you that you can't do such and such is an idiot. I sometimes drift with sports tires or even hard racing slicks if I'm using a muscle car.

I like being comfortable . But never mix tires, probably at some cases it introduces snap back.
