When a car is sliding sideways, you may want to downshift instead of using brakes to pull the car’s nose forward again (more on that in differentials).The back end will not have the same grip as the front. BrakesĮveryone knows about brakes but, i will emphasize its not less important function than that weight shifting!Īlways remember when braking: When a vehicle enters braking in a straight line, the weight transfers to the front. To overcome understeer, you may steer through the direction where car tends to slip (out of the way) and apply a little brake (maybe handbrake). Understeer: Front wheels are slipping more than rear wheels or rear wheel grip is higher.Oversteer: Rear wheels are slipping more than front wheels or front wheel grip is higher. So, here is an image with brief description to get the basic idea: Through the guide oversteer and understeer terms will often be emphasized. This also assumes the driver understands AWD, RWD, and FWD require slightly different inputs, although it will discuss how tuning differs for them.If you are not a tuning guy and just want to go into the action with optimum settings I strongly recommend to follow (get those settings as a starting point and shape your settings depending on your driving style) GTR Technical videos on: *Any feedback and extra information is appreciated. This assumes some basic knowledge of how to drive in a rally situation and how racing on paved surfaces differs from racing on loose surfaces. I tried to explain physics and logic happening behind when you change some setting in either direction. This is based on the author’s experience and opinion and some cool guys’ blogs or videos. Also I tried to explain how physics and mechanics work under the hood as this way it is more memorizable.This is organized roughly in the order vehicle systems should be tuned. This document will discuss tuning in terms of difference from the default settings. The majority of this document describes how the different settings affect the vehicle’s handling, as well as how the settings interact. This is an overview of tuning a vehicle in a sim racing NOT FOR REAL CARS. I tried to explain what each part of the tuning items behave in real life or in simulation (sometimes regardless of the fact that it may or may not be simulated in the game mechanics). Btw I need to emphasize that I AM NOT AN EXPERT.This guide is specifically written to make your chosen car faster and more agile. Sorry for this but this guide my have some plagiarism however I couldn’t keep it for myself, I just like to keep related things in one place and organized. So I decided to share it with other “tweak freaks”. At first, I was writing this guide as a a quick reference to myself by following related guides, watching technical videos and writing them down however, after time it evolved and included much more information.
