Ehrm.. Maybe ok, maybe not :)

BTR is car which is always under tuning, I might put few more out on public soon, experimental and easy.. :)

Here is the replica tune I posted, if the rear is too heavy, move the ballast forward slowly and test it until you find it easier to handle. Also the try the optional front springs.

Recommended setting for DS3 user :

Steering sensitivity at +1 or +2, all aids off, except ABS 1 ( if not comfortable with ABS 0 ) with 1/2 brake balance as starting point.


Notes :

Based on the Porsche 930 generation, the RUF BTR was the little brother to the CTR. Running single turbo setup, the BTR is still no push over, in 1984 it won the fastest car title given by US magazine Road & Track.

Suspension spring rate are based on various ratio used on different 930 and 964 models, the base is 4.9kg/mm front and 8.16kg/mm rear. This should give easier to drive balance, if you want more lively handling and more eager front end, use lower front rate 4.39 or 4.58 :)

Stock gearbox is good, but I also provide optional final drive ratio 4.36 setup which also offered by RUF.
LSD is standard spec RUF 60% lock.

The base tire is Comfort Hard, it drives the best on this tire IMO, but you can fit Comfort Medium too if wished. Tested at various tracks like Silverstone, Brands Hatch, Apricot Hill Reverse, and Rome.

You can treat is as base tune, you can fit any tire you like, lower the power if you want to have more throttle friendly car, I suggest 260-280HP using power limiter.
 
Not sure if this will help, but this is how I have mine set up, and I don't seem to have any major issues?
100/130
5.50/7.00
5/2
2/5
5/2
-0.15/+0.10
Lsd 7/11/35
Brakes 7/5
I haven't touched this car since last year, except for just now taking it for a quick spin just for this post real quick. I'm not sure why I had the braking lsd so high, but Reguardless I did, and might be the key to what your talking about?
Hope it helps?
