Which Ford GT handles best?

Dan · Mar 17, 2013

I've been wondering which Ford GT racecars have the best handling overall. I've tried several out and they initially do pretty well on the Nürburgring but spin out way too often. I have not used any assists and I am playing on a controller.

The GT Test Car. Its in the NCD by Gran Turismo. VERY good car.

I kind of like it but it still oversteers quite a bit upon acceleration. Guess I will have to do a lot of tuning.

The Ford GT LM Race Car '02 handles well also. It (for me, at least) handles better than the test car and white/black striped versions. Then again, it could also depend on your skill. (no offence )

Try increasing the Drivetrain setting: rear Initial Torque to around 35.
This may reduce your over-steer on heavy acceleration

In theory the test car and the spec 2 should handle the same.

The Spec II Race Car spins out way more than the test car.

Set the differential accel and overall settings low and make the rear downforce higher than front downforce. That should help.

They are identical I thought.

Along with torque control. Let it straighten up before you accelerate after a particularly nasty corner or turn. You may have to downshift, say to second, then quick back to third, but im sure thats depends on the situation.
