The cars are divided by competition mode.
Next to each car there’s information regarding HP, handling and aerodynamics.
Welcome to a land of opportunity.
Your Own Upgrades:
Welcome home!
This is a vault of car parts.
When you’ve completed level 2, start buying level 3 equipment.
While plowing throughRace Days, upgradeyour car gradually.
Oh, and one more thing: most expensive DOES NOT equal the best.
Tuning
After buying better parts, you gain access to your car tweaks[#1].
you’ve got the option to change them in three tabs:Suspension, Engine, DrivetrainandBrakes.
Remember, that you have to buy some parts - stock parts won’t grant you access to tuning.
Each tab has several options to set.
Everything’s done with the scrollbars.
[#2]the better the part, the bigger the room the scrollbar has.
Clicking 2 on each of the options will give you more information.
Set Tire Air Pressure to a fairly low level for better grip.
The question of balancing the other options is an individual decision.
Power Steering also depends on what the car is for.
Set to Stiff if the car is forTime AttacksorDrag.
Set to Soft forGriporDrift.
All controls regarding turbo or nitro you should max out.
Just don’t forget the tires.
3.Drivetrain-This is just gear control.
This can also play a role inTime Attacks, even if you’re on Auto transmission.
Improper tweaking can result in low acceleration.
4.Brakes-It’s best to divide the braking strength in favor of the forward axle.
Max out the pressures, but only if you’ve got good tires.
Dynamometric Test
This lets you check the most fundamental info regarding the car, e.g.
Horsepower, torque, braking speed or 0-60 time.
Note, however, that different gameplay modes will influence the results for a given car differently.
AGripcar’s test results don’t have this info, although it does have braking distance.
[#2]This test lets you ascertain what has changed since your last round of tweaks.
Wind Tunnel
This lets you check the influence of aerodynamic parts on the car’s possibilities.
When buying a Spoiler, Hood etc.
