In Gran Turismo at least, increased rear downforce in RWD and 4WD cars will improve traction through the driving wheels, increasing overall speed. Of course, other suspension settings must be tweaked in order to get the right effect, but certainly, cars can go faster with the wing than without.Adding a wing is also unlikely to help much as it will allow you to increase downforce, which in turn will increase drag and slow you down.

I don't think your gearing is the problem to be honest, more so your suspension setup. 👍
Not what I did at all. Infact, none of my 300mph setting have the car fully lowered, or zero toe/camber.Duċk;2419824Yep. Lower the car all the way, have 0 for camber and toe, and it should go faster. 👍
Ditto. Listen to the man, 300mph tuning tells you what works and what doesn't. Guessing what to do to get high speeds is not a good thing to do - GT4 butchers physics, do not use real life logic to figure out what to do. Only experience with the game is any use, and MS has plenty, so let him take over this threadMSNot what I did at all. Infact, none of my 300mph setting have the car fully lowered, or zero toe/camber.

The triangle/wedge shape cause by raising the front allows air to get underneath the car and push it upwards, reducing overall downforce, and therefore reducing one of the aerodynamic influences which slow the car down. We keep the rear low (and if we could, increase rear downforce) in order to keep as much traction in the driving (rear) wheels as possible.Why was the suspension set with the ride height so high in the front?
MSAs for my suspension, I set the spring rate as soft (low values) as possible, then the front of the car as high as possible (180mm), and the rear as low as possible (99mm). These are common 300mph tuning practices, but work (to a lesser extent) on most cars.

Nothing that I havn't said before though, and that most of the top 300mph tuners don't already know anyway.You're spilling secrets left right and centre
