anybody ever drove that car? its my second car, and i got it up to 409 hp and race in the beginner's Championship and won the first two tracks but got cream on the third one. How do you get your car to take good corners? i think the mr2 is understeer or something, how do u fix that?
 
ive never used that car for racing, but its quite good at drifting. just set it up for oversteer...stiffer rear, softer front.
 
Aaron: It sounds like you've got too much power and your transmission is not set up correctly. What tires are you running?

If it has understeer (in an MR car o_0) you are braking way too late. Hit the brakes at twice the distance you are now. Then ease back on the throttle when you turn.

You've overload a tiny car with HP. What other mods have you done to it?

Perhaps your best tune would be to turn ASM = 0 and TCS =1.

i've got the slick tire second from the top, the cheapest one. i've just got the third stage of turbo which adds up to 492 hp. i kinda like to stick to just one car and race with it. I dont know, the car just looks so good
 
Hello aaron_3719:
And WELCOME to GTP Forums!!!

:D Great to see a new member asking intelligent questions. Am quite sure the guys here will help you to solve your dilemma...UB57
:D
 
yes fully customized suspension... do not lighten unless you wanna... lower it a bit and fool around with the settings... i think its a great car... but i like the glimited more just cause its na...
 
Yeah, try braking a little earlier, and set the ASM to 0, and TCS to 1...(like AO suggested ;))

You don't need any softer tires, as they cost way too much, and the Hard/Medium and the Hard tires are good enough. :) Also, try tweaking the transmission (on auto to start with) to reach the redline on the final gear at the end of the straight.
 
yeah that is good advice... its importnat because it will help you deliver maximum power in turns... good for drifting and good for tighter turns and good for illiminating understeer as enough power will always be available to oversteer...

viper brings up a good point that speed is not always about top speed but about cornering and acceleration
