I had the hardest time trying to tune my cars simply because I didn't know where to begin. This will at least give you a decent starting point and address two major issues immediately; Understeer and Oversteer :
Understeer means the grip at the rear is stronger than that at the front. This makes the front of the car push, or reluctant to turn in. When you hit walls because the car will not turn like you want it to, you have understeer. To reduce, increase grip at the front relative to the rear. Try these:
Raise ride height at rear, or lower ride height in front.
Soften front springs, and/or harden rear springs.
Soften front dampers, and/or harden rear dampers.
Soften front stabilizers, and/or harden rear stabilizers.
Increase front downforce, and/or decrease rear downforce.
Increase front camber, and/or decrease rear camber.
Oversteer means the grip at the front is stronger than that of the rear. This makes back of the car go sideways, or spin. To reduce, increase grip at the rear relative to the front. Try these:
Raise ride height at front, and/or lower ride height at rear.
Soften rear springs, and/or harden front springs.
Soften rear dampers, and/or harden front dampers.
Soften rear stabilizers, or harden front stabilizers.
Increase rear downforce, or decrease front downforce.
Increase rear camber, or decrease front camber.
Do a couple of qualifying laps and figure out if your car is under or oversteering, then start making tweaks to help you get control of the car....helped me and hopefully will help others. Good driving
