Gran Turismo fans this thread will help you how to tune your cars on some tracks.

Autodromo Nazionale Monza
Since Monza is a pretty flat track with few turns. Your car must be tuned for maximum straight line speed and acceleration. You can lower its height for stability which will help you on this track to get the best out of your car.

Autumn Ring Mini Forward
It’s a small track and straights aren’t that long so you can’t hit the maximum speed of your car. For most of the time, it will be 2nd to 4th gear. So adjust your gears in such a way that you can get more speed while you are in second or third gear which hopefully make you come out top in the race

Autumn Ring Forward
Unlike a speedy track, your top speed won’t touch limits and hence keeping a smaller gear ratio might be a good idea on this track. You can adjust the length of your second and third gears (increase it) for a slight advantage at turns. Negative Camber can be useful and help you in the race a real lot.

Cape Ring North
Twisted track with some tough turns and hairpins. You need better acceleration as you leave a turn. Keeping your gear ratio small can be a good option for this. Keep car’s height to normal as turns won’t allow you to get to that speed where you need stability. Which means this track is not all about speed.

Cape Ring South
This track is slower than the North so you need more acceleration here while you leave the turns. Negative Camber can be useful. But in away the track is very similar.

Cape Ring
It’s a pretty diverse track with lots of turns and few straights. Since the track isn’t bumpy, you can go for stiff suspension configuration. Negative camber can help you at turns.

Chamonix Mini
Overall the track does not contain any hard turns. Gear ratio must be kept small but again, not that small that you get to the top gear in no time. Middle gears like 2nd and 3rd need more attention so be aware.

Chamonix East
Although there aren’t any hard turns but you may want to change your suspension (specially the camber) to have more grip at medium turns in the map.

Chamonix West
It’s quite an irregular map with some jolts and bumps. Suspension should be soft and you may need some front and rear downforce and stability. Gear ratio should be set to medium.

Chamonix Main
Snow won’t slow you down a lot so don't get distracted by it. Medium-close gear ratio is recommended. You can get snow tires for better results. Smooth track for the most part but turns can be annoying so you may want to increase the downforce a bit.

Nürburgring Nordschleife
This track is a real test of your car and your driving. There are so many turns and you just can’t opt for any of the extreme setup. Don’t lower the height but downforce given by aerodynamic tweaks will be useful at turns. Make sure that your car hits the rev limiter at straight if not you can decreases the gear ratio.


if you wane no about any more tracks please leave a comment on this Smile

Great guide. This should be a sticky Smile

Just a suggestion...
This could be turned into a mega thread where people post their tuning setups for certain cars that work on certain tracks.

Pretty useful. It gives many drivers out there an idea of how to tune their cars for the specific track. Keep up the good work!
