I can't seem to get my Beetle Cup Car to win the 3rd and 4th race of the Beetle Cup.

The first two paces pose no real problem to me, but then things start to go wrong.
I even opted for the engine 3 upgrade, which puts me @ 405 horsies, but still I end up 4th or 5th.

I am not very familiar with car tuning, but these are roughly my specs :

spring rate - 14 / 13

height - 90 / 90

bound - 6 / 6

rebound - 8 / 8

camber - 3.4 / 3.4

brakes - 4 / 4

engine fully upgraded

If any of you can provide me with some good settings, please do so.
 
If that's the minimum ride height, some of your problem comes from to being too soft on the shocks, particularly rebound.

I'd run like this (I'm at my dad's watching all the racing today, as I don't have cable at my place, so I don't have the PS2 with me)


Springs 11 10.2
Ride Ht. at leas 10mm above min. on front, 2mm higher than front for the rear
Bound 6 5
Rebound 4 4 (after much testing, I found that 1 is stiffest, 10 softest)
Camber 2.3 1.5

Also, with that much hp, you at least need the 1 way LSD in the car. Really and truely, you should back down the power some when you install the LSD, as I think you'll find it makes a big difference.

And if you have the ASM settings on, put them at zero, or as low as you dare go. TCS (with that much power) should be at 7. I'd go down on the TCS as you take away power.
