Setup sharing thread
As in the old thread it's very hard to find the actual setups between all that offtopic, I found it best to make a new one.

If you need help with a setup for a certain car / stage this is the place to ask.

Everyone who posts a setup please make screenshots of each setup page, and feel free to outline the changes you've made. If you would like to post a video of a run with that setup go ahead.

And please, keep off-topic to a minimum.

Peugeot 306 Maxi - Greece - Perasma Platani / Kathodo Leontiou

I started running the Peugeot 306 Maxi Kit Car on Greece today and found out that with the right setup, the Kit Cars are very easy to drive on Gravel, in fact the only cars that are more forgiving when driving on the limit are the 2010s.

Give it a go if you like:

Suspension (Rear)[gyazo.com]

Current best times with this setup:

Perasma Platani: 6:18:701

Kathodo Leontiou: 6:24:817

Here's a video of the 3rd test run on Perasma Platani, with slightly different damper settings and gear ratio. The setup above now makes full use of all gears and handles big jumps and bumbs better.

I'd really like to see zeb's setup for the Seat Ibiza though, he's still nearly 4 seconds faster.

Here's the test run on Kathodo Leontiou:

Lancia Stratos - Greece - Perasma Platani

The problem I had with the Stratos was it's heavy oversteering on corner exit which I managed to reduce to a minimum by loosening the rear springs a bit, aswell as softening the rear anti-roll and giving it some more negative camber and toe. See the setup for yourself. I doubt it's perfect since I haven't tried more negative values on camber and toe yet, so there's possibly room for improvement.

This setup is appropriate with only minor changes to all stages in Greece and should also work very well in Wales. Gear ratios should be adjusted for each stage to get the maximum out of the car. I left the bumpers alone because in Greece are no such jumps that make the Stratos lose control on landing.

Lancia Stratos - Wales - River Severn Valley

This setup can be applied for all stages in Wales, only the gear ratios should be adjusted as River Severn Valley has lots of long straights, hence the gears are set rather long.

Thank you for sharing setups. I think it would be very helpful if "show default setup" was activated before the screenshot, so people can see what was changed and how much from default.

Thanks for the feedback, I'll do that next time I share a setup.

Lancia 037 Evo 2 - Germany - Frauenberg / Oberstein / Hammerstein / Ruschberg

This was a tough one! The Lancia 037 likes to completely spin out the moment you only apply a tiny bit too much throttle. I did a lot of testing until I could get rid of that, for the most part at least. You still have to treat her gently. What made me a little proud, the first run I finished on Frauenberg when I was satisfied with the setup is currently #1 in the ranking, on Hammerstein as well. This car on asphalt is one hell of a ride!

Completely reworked the setup for Hammerstein / Ruschberg. Vastly increased cornering speed. Careful on the throttle.

Added Gears and Damper Settings for the massive jump on Oberstein. (Still shouldn't go flat out on that one.)

my 037 setup germany


anyone want to try my 037 set up its kinda working good, I have changed the tyre grip to high, I don;t see it as cheating if just playing for fun, if the option is there to tune stuff then why not use it. The grip is terrible on medium,

Lancia 037 Evo 2 - Monaco - Route de Turini / Pra d'Alart

Ride height at the rear is a lot lower than at the front and suspension softer to shift as much weight to the rear axis as possible. Lowered brake strength immensely to prevent brakes from locking on snow / ice.

Anyone got a good setup for ford fiesta RS - Greece (on dirt) been struggling a lot with this, got a great set up for tarmac but dirt still sucks
bUm Jul 13, 2015 @ 12:42am 
Anyone got a good Lancia 037 setup for Wales? Tried extensively to get something that didn't slide around side-to-side way too much, bounce off course due to not handling bumps well enough, didn't suffer from severe understeer, or some combination of the three.

Despite much testing, I couldn't find anything that felt stable enough that I felt I could complete runs with relative ease (seems like the Master AI is setting a fairly low bar for Group B RWD on Wales since many of my attempts were in the green... but inevitably I'd find myself in the trees with all my testing setups since they weren't stable enough for the long run, even when going quite slow).

someone has a decent Mini Cooper S setup? I tweaked and tried yesterday about 2 hours and couldnt find a really good one. its impossible for me to slide around hairpins with this thing.

The key is loosening the differential, remove the positive rear toe, then try increasing negative camber.

No wonder, it's FWD. With the 1960's car you have to spam the handbrake a lot to get around sharp turns.

Yeah i thought so. Thanks
Jack™ Jul 13, 2015 @ 8:34am 
guys sorry for repeating my self but really need some tips for ford fiesta rs to be used on dirt don't need a whole setup any tips would be greatly appreciated.

With those 60's vehicles you really don't have to use handbrake. Straight brakings and clean line as possible to keep rpm high enough.

Should'n GroupB complete a stage faster than GroupA ? oh well, i did beat your GroupB time by 17 seconds with a Group A car :3 http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=481162920
I'll gladly share Setup's, if you guys want to try what it's like to be driving in a proper tweaked car. Oh and by the way, if you're interested in watching replays uploaded by top players,
check out my thread,
http://steamcommunity.com/app/310560/discussions/0/523890681418814581/

Please add your setup screenshots to your post. There's a reason why I asked for no off-topic. It was you who destroyed the old thread, so play by the rules or delete your post and leave this thread. No further discussion.

In Wales with Lancia I use -1 of maximum differential lock. That's only tweek I do for setups. Here you can see how it handles with Rally speed (no Rallysprint/maximum attack).

If you love realism. Learn to drive 60's FWD without handbrake. I have some sort of experience of those irl.
