Forza 7 help

[FlamBango]

Ok I'm playing Forza 7 and enjoying the single player but trying to get competitive in multiplayer

The problem I'm finding is with the tuning. I pick a car, download a tune that apparently gives me better numbers than the competition but in the race they just pull away like I was standing still. All I can do is flatten the accelerator but you can see everyone just pulling away.

What's the secret of a tune in this game?

Are you using any assists? What gear change type are you using?

 

[FlamBango]

nope, no assists. Well i've turned off suggested line and auto breaking but things like abs are still there. Gear change type? I've just gone through the garage and made every mod i could to keep the car within a type "C" and downloaded an online tune that someone uploaded that improves the numbers too. I compare my numbers against the lineup and theyre generally better. Slightly better top speed and better acceleration.

Its just a bit frustrating to be hammering along a straight as fast as possible and you get people going past you at lightspeed. I don't really understand what they've done that i haven't while keeping the car within the category.

Must use manual gears, but manual clutch will give you a boost.

Abs on will be fine.

Online most players are using a specific setup for each track type

As above, I was alluding more towards what gear change setting you use. If you're not on manual or manual with clutch then you'll be losing a chunk of performance that won't show up in setup or car rating.

Are you maintaining your speed through the corners and accelerating effectively on the way out of a bend?

Didn’t want to open a new thread for a question but, are the ghosts broken? Seems to just record my very first lap which is from a stand still then replays that one every lap.
