Hi,
Just curious if anyone is having the same problem as I am.

I’m using both a controller and a wheel, and having a hard time keeping the car from spinning out and doing doughnuts throughout the grass.

I tried adjusting the throttle sensitivity (controller) and steering dead zone (controller) but it’s just so twitchy. This car gives me fits trying to use it. I mainly been on the Watkins Glen b

Anyone have a solution? I tried a tuning setup from the community-its an improvement, but still feel that I’m on the edge of losing control-of the car...

Thanks
 
Uploaded oem default set-up and had no issues. Basically i find all road cars undrivable out of the box and i always solve the issue using OEM set-up.

There's your problem, try using only one of the two :p

Wheel spin with ff cars has always been a joke with PD, you could pull from a standing start with an 80hp vw rabbit in 3rd gear and spin all sorts of wonker ways. I'm convinced it has to do with the tire model and is something of a thorn in their side.

Soften the rear springs, don't use much camber or toe on the front ones...
