Try this instead, I might get on 2 wheels on more than one occasion but it never flips.

Rideheight -22/0
Springrate 4.2/6.2
Damper 5/5
Damper (comp.) 3/3
Stabilizer 1/1
Camber 1.2/1.8
Toe -0.20/0.00 (to counterbalance understeer in high speed corners)

Can I ask what tyres you guys are using?

I found that it only rolls with racing tyres. It needs to slide a bit.
 
I haven't found a setup yet that prevents rolling with RS tires. Well, when I lowered the car all the way and stiffened the springs, I made it so I would take forever to tip, and was easy to catch, but that's not the same as preventing roll. So, I just drive it with sports tires. Also, has anyone made a "Superbug" racing league yet? If not, I'm surprised it would take this long.
 
I like classic cars so I was glad to see it upgraded to premium, now PD just needs to work on some of the other cars
 
Its too slow for 60,000cr, it tips over easily, its old, engines in the wrong place, its ugly, and everyone who drives it is old or dumb. I love the beetle 1200. the customization options allow you to go wild and its actually very fast compared to the other cars in its class, almost faster than the life BUS(for anyone who doesnt know, the life bus will dominate all old super underpowered cars if given the chance)(cant remember if van or bus)

Once tuned, its absolutely wonderful to drive. the sound is great and its very agile for such an old car.

Good. Cuz I'm old and dumb, despite loving this car. I grew up in one, plus a 75 convertible Vette and a 68 Camaro. Of the three, the Bug was more fun at the limit, but that may be because my uncle was drunk at the time and was driving.

I have no idea how we made it out alive, but damn it was fun. The vette was just too slow and the camaro too unreliable.

:scared:

Haven't tried it even though I've got the DLC. Not bothered at all. In my world there are at least 5,000 cars more interesting than this one... but of course, that's just my opinion.
 
Trying to make a tune to get this thing to roll over while online, i tips so easy in A spec but feels to planted still online.
 
Love it.

Put some upgrades on it and pretend you're driving a Fun Cup car.
 
How about:

-Stock and comfort hards.
-24H 'Ring arcade time trial (or infinite laps with opponents).
-Drive as hard and aggressive as possible and use that rear engine to flick the little bug into every turn sideways!

That is fun.

Edit: If the odometer worked too it'll be perfect.
