How do they compare to yours? I have to add a stage 3 turbo and brake controller and I am done. Right now I have 326HP or something like that.

I find that I am in tough against the rally cars in the beginner GT world championship. And the Apex MR-S leaves me in the dust.
 
ok, found out what are talking bout...

i dont add HP mods apart from chip... HP should equal about 220 (which, if u buy one in rl it will have).
I really dont put much effort into modding cars. just stiffen the suspension a bit and rollbars too
 
I have not driven the Fiat a lot but would say it requires less work done to it than most cars especially FF Cars. If it ain't fast enough try gears or quit and leave it up to Ving to show you how it is done. ;)
 
we should all challenge ving to a supreme FIAT race...he seems to be the all powerful FIAT driver....so how harsh would it be if he came dead last against all of us in his OWN car? hahaha
 
hhhhmmmm....im thinking of buying me a blue one...that color appealed to me most, or black too....even though our R/L garage is filled with white cars, i prefer darker colors on most cars....heh but my firebird does white a great justice!:cool:
 
Yup - I should have specified FIAT.

This car handles very nice but it needs more power.

I don't think this car is fast enough to get me through the GT World Championship. I like to win comfortably not by inches.

Mine is Burgundy with black rims. I call it the rotten, bruised egg plant look.

What races can you competitively race a stk hp FIAT in? Does the AI lower the standard of competition?
 
i did the FF pro, and won.
its up to the task.

and if you cant keep up with the competition.... well they leave u behind.
you could race the italian avant guard with it :P
have fun with the zondas tho :P
 
lol mine is blue with gold rims (i bought one today) but it's not called royal blue, it's something else....mine has a bright blue and a dark blue, but neither are called royal blue....
 
At my current stage the GT World Tour Oval race represents much needed easy money. My 371HP FIAT has a faster top speed than everything else, but it seems to have problems on the corners. Any tips on how I can correct understeer for the oval? Should I shift weight bias forward or try camber settings?
 
raise the front or lower the back....

with a normal or raised rear end it creates downforce, by dropping the rearend the downforce is lessened.

camber. front 2.0, rear 1.0
 
Try what Ving said. If it works then Ving is the Master Fiat Tuner. Nuff Said.

If not try this:

Raise the back at least 15mm higher then the front.
Raise rear spring rate to max
Raise rear bound and rebound to max

I used to think like Ving and will probably try some more settings using that theory.

What I am suggesting is more of a cheats settings as it makes the back end lose traction. This may be hard on the Fiat though.

You could try playing with rear toe settings as well. Try max one way and then the other as I can never work out which way is best.

yeah, what worked?

Yeah who is the Master Fiat Tuner ?

I suspect it is you Ving because I have not tried my latest technique on the Fiat but I suspeect it has too much grip for it to work.
