Trying to nurse this thing around the GT all stars. Constantly babysitting the throttle. Power on oversteer is just annoying.

And when you put a wheel up onto a curb you'd think the ripple strip is covered in oil... the thing wants to go into a snap spin as soon as it makes contact.

Try to adjust the toe angle, and for good measure, throw soft racing tires on there unless using it in b-spec. Stretching the gears out will result in less wheelspin because you aren't shifting as often, at least I'm not.

here's my tune for it -1036HP; tires= racing softs; aero downforce= 57/F 83/R; transmission= top-speed 400kmh; LSD= initial torque (all values rear) 10 /Accl. Sensitivity 40 /Brake Sensitivity 20; Suspension= camber- 1.5/F 2.0/R, Toe angle -0.05/F 0.15/R, Ride height -20/F -15/R, Spring rate 13.0/F 14.5/R, Dampers (extension) 8/F&R (compression) 5/F 7/R, Anti-roll bars 4/F 3/R; Brake balance i left alone at 5 F&R, suit that to your liking, i suggest trying it lower if you're not going to use no ABS, i use ABS at 1.

Strange. Yesterday I did the GT all stars with the Toyota. I thought it was brilliant. Even in the rain on slicks.
 
That tune works good. The only change I made was up the brake balance to 6.
 
Love my Toyota Minolta. Favorite car by far. Easily won GT All Stars.
 
The car is always the reason for someone's inability to drive right?
