Try adjusting the tranmission gear ratios.
Remember: Higher numbers, less speed, more acceleration.
Lower numbers, more speed, less acceleration.
 
The C12S 0wnz! Superfast, yet easy to control. Sweet as an ice cream dream. I don't know how anyone can say an unkind word about them.
 
Once properly set up the Zonda is awesome. The C-12s can be tuned to over 1000 hp. And its shaped like a wing! If you can't find 200 mph in that combo Go directly to the tuning center. Buy the full race tranny, set your auto number to about 35-40. You don't even have to play with the final drive ratio.

So how do you like the 300m braking distance? That car just does not stop! :mad:

It's better than the RUF RGT though, freaking freight trains!
 
The C12s has got a really close ratio 'box as standard for acceleration rather than top end. A full racing gearbox will easily get the top speed up:D

:confused: Haven't had a problem with that...in fact, I've walked right through a bunch of races with my C12S.

It is like my 566 BHP Griffith, tho...it requires a light touch. :burnout:
 
and as for stoping, why not set the brake power high? like 19 front and 21 rear. and when it comes time to brake, just start from 100% braking power and ease off as you slow down more. you will find you will slow down VERY quick, and if you can get the hang of easing off the brake smoothly, you will not become unstable and loose traction. takes a bit of practice, but its very effective.
 
I found that the best setup for brakes are

Front 20
Rear 15

I use this setup for all my cars. The higher front setting compinsates for all the weight transfer. The lower rear setting keeps the wheel from locking when the weight is tranfered off them, yet it effectively slows down the car. Too much of a rear setting can cause the car to be very loose when braking. To much in the front can cause understeer and if they lock-up, the car won't turn at all. And any time there is more power in the rear than in the front your going to see a lot of over steer and possibly a spin-out.
 
have u noticed (piticularly in f1's) that if u coast to a stop that ur wheels smoke near 30 and below
