| Is like hard i cant tune mine right and if I'm not careful on the accelerator the cars tail kicks out and sometimes it ends up in the guardrail which sucks so does anybody know any tuning methods or any setups i should try out on my AE86? | |

| I'd probably stop tuning it entirely and focus on driving, it does more harm than good unless you know exactly what you're doing. | |

| Um kraze when I left I uh... deleted your tune cause i figured I'd probably not come back but I did and I was like agh! I'm a dumbass -w- so I set my car up for B class and it kind of runs good just have still a slight problem with accelerating cause my tail still tends to kick out a bit i might have to make it to where the weight of the car will shift to the rear a bit better to get it to stop doing that | |

| And strawberrygl i get what your saying and I'll try but I've gotta figure out how to keep the tail from kicking out at near the exit or middle of a corner after that I can start my time attacks and work my way to getting to be the fastest 86 driver on forza 4 | |

| As daft as this will sound, practice with the hennesey. It is a pain to drive without tcs and stm, but will really teach you throttle control. Getting better at driving in game is always the main priority, as no tune will make anyone a good driver/racer. I know this advice is crazy, but trust me on this, and at least give it a go. | |

| Ok but I also need to be taught the right time to break for a corner in the 86 cause if I miss my braking point and brake late even just by a little i will end up going outside or slide outside when turning slam into a guardrail | |

| Everybody my time has just been fixed up i just ran a 4:44 run time I've gotten better again but now not only does my car still have the tail sliding out a little if I'm not careful but now I have an understeer problem (the dangerous kind) | |

| Like many cars in this game, you can't just tune out the oversteer. You have to learn to tame it.
Watch some replays of the top drivers and you'll see they tame the oversteer and actually even use it to help corner at times. As corny as it is about to sound, you have to dance around the edge of grip to be fast. | |

| I get what you mean mind charger but I was talking about understeer idk what exactly I did but I had to soften the rear springs so the car's weight would shift to the rear cause the rear had no grip at times and would cause my car's tail to kick out a a and it would go into a guardrail even when I controlled the throttle and im not best at tuning so the understeer issue will have to be tamed another way on my next time attack I'll find a way but it won't be with tuning (i dont drive circuits so my tuning is kind of unorthodox lol) | |

| Found out why i kept losing traction easily apparently the rear anti roll bars were set too low in the rear and everytime i pressed on the accelerator even when throttle controlling it the car would lose traction and start skidding so I set it up higher and I also tinkered with a few other things and now I can run a 4:42 run time (still forget the other numbers behind it lol) so nearly there i would have done a better time but my car suddenly lost traction in the long turn that's 4 corners before the finish and I hit the guardrail | |

| Ugh stiffening your rear roll bar will cause more oversteer. There is no consistency in what you are saying if you say the car suddenly lost traction and have no explanation for it even after "fixing" the tune. "suddenly losing traction" means you are not in control and you did not fix your traction problem... | |

"suddenly losing traction" means you are not in control and you did not fix your traction problem... I think maybe he's got his springs too soft or something. Either way, this makes less sense than a 260 HP SUV touching the 8 minute barrier on the Ring. | |

| I know he likes to run soft springs to help transfer weight or something. Maybe stiffening did help correct the problem, maybe he thinks lower numbers are stiffer because yesterday I told him, "lowering the rear sway bar" might help. Maybe its just placebo and he got a really good run in. Who knows. | |
