Hi, as a new user and this being my first post I wanted to start a thread on one of my favourite cars of the game so far, the Mercedez CLK touring car. IMO it's one of the finest cars for riding the curbs at the 'Ring yet still provides massive grip through the corners. So below I'm providing my own tune and inviting people to add their own tweaks and tunes on this page!


Parts Bought:

Rigidity Improvement
Stage 3 Turbo (High RPM)
Racing Soft Tyres

Performance:

Power: 625 BHP
Torque: 65.3 kgfm

Here's the tune, all values are F/R:

Aero:
50/65

Gear Ratio:
224 MPH (360 KPH)

LSD:
Initial 40
Acceleration 45
Braking 13

Suspension:
Ride Height -3/0
Spring Rate 15.2/13.5
Extension 8/7
Compression 7/6
Roll bar 6/5

Wheel Alignment:

Camber 1.2/2.3
Toe -0.25/0.12

Brakes:

Balance 6/6


Let me know what you think and post your own set-ups because this is a great car it's just a shame there's no in car view.

Are you using aids with this setup or not? I've found that most setups on here have wicked understeed, but that's mostly the game, not the person it seems; otherwise, not everyone would be having trouble as I seem to be reading on this site and others.

After playing with the settings for a while, I've come up with this one that I feel is pretty good...
Downforce: 50/70
LSD: 50/55/10
Ride Height: -8/-10
Spring Rate: 13.8/14.2
Extension: 6/7
Compression: 6/7
Anti-Roll: 4/5
Camber: 5.5/0.0
Toe: -.50/.10
Brake Bias: 6/6

This gives some awesome turn-in response, while little snap-steer happens coming out of a turn. I'm using Traction Control at 1 and ABS at 1 with no other aids.

To collosus, man that was an awesome tune. Thanks heaps as it's now one of my favorite cars
 
I can turn a 6.02 with that car darn near stock with 625 hp.

IMO there really isn't much that needs to be done to the car.
 
Thank you Collosus, your tune won me the dream championship. The car turns a little wide on flat tracks, but it acts as a "mini-redbull" on the ring, It almost feels arcade-y. The stock setup when I purchased the CLK from the OCD wasn't satisfactory to me at all.
 
How a non-turbo car would run with these settings?

I have to agree she is fast avery light... And thanks for the set up TrueBlue_au
 
Loving this set up for my new clk, but does anyone know a way of slightly tweaking collosus's set up slightly to get a little bit more power/acceleration on the straights?
 
^it prolly didnt help that the tune was pre 2.09 physics so it wouldnt handle the same as it did then.
