1. Slide "Final" all the way to 5.500.
2. Slide Autoset to 1.
3. Then slide "Final" to 3.280.
This is the tranny trick, and this is a good base for tuning your transmission for each track.

Thanks for taking the time to do that! I loaded the settings.... what an improvement!! Prior, I tried tuning it by myself but couldn't get anything where I wanted it. I'm reading the too fast description of each control while setting it up, just giving myself a headache. Is there any trick to learning the basics of tuning so I can have a good starting point for the next car I want to tune? Thanks again! 👍

I would highly recommend for you rk's GT4 Noober Tuner Guide for starting out. It helps you learn the basics without getting too complicated. Choose a car or two and tune them using this guide to get the feel of tuning. If you want a guide that tells you what spring rates, toe, and camber does, look [url="http://www.livejournal.com/community/cambercrew/16378.html"]here[/url]. Also, I would look at the FAQs of the OLRacing School Board for more info. If you just look around here, I'm sure you can find some really good tuning guides.

Hope this helps,
