Wouldn't quit tuning til I broke the 7'30s. Car still understeers but it's a major improvement from stock IMO. Quite stable, even when off track. (I can't drive)
Any suggestions, comments, especially compliments & votes, are welcome.

I did it on sport tires as racing tires tend to mask flaws in setups... I know racing tires would help, but the point was to get it driveable in stock form, so people can use it that are still early in the game and don't have the money to buy the racing tires. And for the people that just like to drive the cars as they were meant to be driven. Thanks for the feedback. Smile
If Henry Ford made the assembly line, why didn't he invent a "make it fast" line? (the Model T topped out at approx. 45 mph, don'tcha know)

Have not used the S7 at the ring before, so run abore 100 miles with your set-up with no TSM. Ran a clean 7'04.124 and a 7'01.688 with one three wheel off. The car need the high speed push fixed. Rear spring and shocks need some work also. Gears 3, 4, and 5 need some changing. I was hitting the max revs with two or three car lenghts to the braking points. I am going to play a around with this over the week end. Good start.

Thanks for the feedback, the car doesn't seem to top out on the main straight but you're right, it shifts into 4th and 5th too quick, I'll get right on that. As for the suspension, it's the best I can do without making the spring rates too stiff for the bumps, as I'm trying my darnedest to get rid of the massive understeer this car had stock. I'm still new to tuning but I've noticed that cars that understeer stock have lower spring rates in the front than the back, so to get rid of this push you're talking about, I'll have to increase the rear spring rates more and increase bound & rebound a click or 2. Thanks for testing, and I only post what I find worth posting, and keep tuning and give me more tips like this. I like an intelligent tester rather than someone who says "Ure seup sukcs". Thanks for being kind, and thanks for the feedback. Smile

Pretty good setup all in all.I ended up reducing rear ride height by 25 mm at the 'Ring , and
reduced the front toe setting. I also lower the entire car another 10mm at "smooth" tracks.
Keep up the good work. A lot of people that frequent this site appreciate all of the work you guys do working out setups. Smile Thumbs Up

Thanks for the feedback. I need to get my GT4 disc buffed but if you want a setup done you can request anything. I need something to do.
