I have been trying to tune several street cars for daytona speedway(Oval). I have tried many different things, stiffer springs, different compression/extension, camber/toe. I cant seem to get any car to take a turn without the car sliding up to the wall. I wasnt very good at tuning cars in gt5, now with gt6 im at a loss.

I might be able to help. What car are you using? How much power/PP? What kind of tires? What are your current suspension and LSD settings? Does the car slide into the wall when you are on the brakes going into a corner, or when you accelerate out of the corner?

I have being trying to get leno's toronado tuned. So far this is my setup, rh 100 front and rear, springs f20.03r15.69, damp(comp) f4 r5 (Ext) f4 r4, rollbars f4 r4, camber f0.0 r0.0, toe f0.00 r 0.20. Lsd is 10/15/5
I have tried various different dampers, rollbars, springs, and camber. I havnt messed with toe too much.
It seems no matter what i try the car will get about halfway thru turn one and will either just slowly slide up to the wall, or the backend will just slide out halfway thru the turn.
 
Ive also tried the FXX with no luck, Im not very good at tuning and not very patient. So i ended up deleting the settings i had on it.
 
Try these settings on the toronado

This is an extraordinarily heavy car with a lot of power in a pretty unsophisticated chassis. As such, it demands very long braking distances (especially on sports tires,) and careful throttle application. No amount of tuning can fix this. Hopefully this will make it a little better for you:)

Edit: changed front damper extension from 2 to 3

I have all weight and power parts on these cars, and im using racing tires... ill try your toronado and see.
I picked the toronado because of its weight and power, figured it would be difficult to tune

Lemme know what you think!
 
well, I think i wasnt clear in the OP. Im tuning for the oval, not road coarse. I just tried it and once the car hits 185, its like driving on ice once i hit the turns...
 
Lame server maintenance.

Anyway,

I just gave my old gt5 enzo tune a try, works fine except for it understeers into the wall if i do any more then 230 in the turns, only the outside front tire wears... gt6 you have me so confused

MR cars are a little different. If you are still around later i'll take a crack at it and try to clarify
 
I think I got the enzo figured out, my front roll bars were set really low, so the front of the car is leaning when the back isnt, puts all the weight on that one tire. That and had to adjust my toe
 
Is it just me, or are the days of gt5 where you could just hold the gas thru all the turns and the car would just slow down to w/e speed it can take the turn at. That isnt happening anymore huh?
