i know alot of people have trouble tuning this car, in particular it's tendency to oversteer under brakes, i've found that despite all other tuning done, that this si still a major issue with this car.

but alas, i have a solution, by adding 35kg of ballast to the front of the, which in turn brings the weight balance to a perfect 50:50 front to rear, it almost completely removes the car's tendency to oversteer while braking, and makes it much MUCH more stable, say if you hit the edge of the track, it cost's 11 PP in total, but allow's you to drive the car much more aggressively without fear of crashing as soon as you make the tiniest mistake.

i used this as my base tune, with the weight ballast, and was able to win the first race in the forumla GT championship with the engine power reduced to 750HP quite easily.
 
I was able to solve the braking oversteer issue without using ballast. So I'll have 11 PP more than you? Cool.
 
Not really a secret as adjusting the ballast on a lot of cars can fix their handling problems. The older RUFs and Cobra come to mind.
 
A: 50/50 is not perfect weight distribution
B: You can do this by lowering the brake bias on the rear, instead of neutering the handling and slowing the car down
 
My secret for this car: lsd 5/5/5...

5/5/5 LSD settings are the non-tuner's way of getting the understeer out of most cars in GT5. For the FGT it will produce inside wheel spin and increase the loose condition on corner entry, not fix it. Try this. Take my LSD settings for the FGT and apply it to your tune. Tell me if it is faster or not.
