Anyone been tuning these....?

I've got mine pretty much sorted except that when it hits 140mph the handling goes light.... if you touch the steering then the car flips out and becomes uncontrollable.

Car if fully modified... no brake controller tho.

Downforce is on max for front and rear
Sports soft on front, sports medium on rear

Spring rate 7.6........11.0
Ride heignt 90.........92
bounce 6...........7
rebound 8...........8
camber 2.0........1.0
toe 0..............0
stabliser 4..............4

ASM Oversteer = 4
ASM Understeer= 10
TCS = 5

Any ideas??????
 
At first, sorry, this is my first message, and English is not my native language because I am Spanish.

I suggest you to transfer some weigh from rear to front. I put "-8" in Weight Transfer, and the car really rocks!!!

These are my settings:

Spring rate 11.5 ........13.5
Ride heignt 95.........95
bounce 7...........8
rebound 8...........9
camber 2.0........1.0
toe 0..............0
stabliser 5..............6

No ACM or TSC. I hope it works!

flips out! thats an understatement, i used mine on the very bumpy le sarthe track and whn hitting the slight bend on the straight at 210mph (ish) it just flipped out and went into a very quick spin, got ther photo mode pics somewhere :crazy:

if you want high speed stability, you should try smaller value for front downforce. lower it five clicks at time and test it out, till you find the right one. i didn't use ASM at all, only TCS.. and even that one was on 1.. and everyone claim that french guys can't make fast cars. true, they're from eighties, which means that they ruled the streets back then, before first japanese turbo-nutters came onto streets..

No way!!!! :dopey:

I tried it with no ACM or TCS (car is 320bhp).
Talk about having to feather the throttle!!! Too mad.
I put it back to my ASM and TCS settings, makes cornering almost sexual ;)

Setting the weight transfer to -12, front downforce to 20 and rear downforce to 30 seems to have done the trick....

I'm going to keep working on it..... want to get the 5 handling the best it can.... maybe its cos i've got a R5GTTurbo. :)
