Need for Speed Shift - Time Trial Championship

My first effort, i think i can do into 1.29's but 1.27 no way.

Some tuning advise, i know im not the fastest ......(yet, lol) but thought id share my findings, ground breaking they are not.

I took some time last night to listen to each explination of what each setting does, (yer obvious i know) and i found that if i set the car (for this car/track) for lots of oversteer, and then tweak it away from this until the car is stable, it took me a couple of hours to get a decent setup, but i went from 1.36 laptimes to 1.29 within that time frame.

I can see why people are frustrated with this game, but take my word for it, learn the tuning section, and you set much better lap times. No one can really tell you what there settings actually are because not every setup will suit every player. Just get a exagerated start point (oversteer is best personally) and rain the car in from there.

Hope this helps :)

That does help - thank you. I'm not frustrated as i'm treating it as a race against myself as much as anything but if I can get the tuning right I may just be a bit more competitive. Another tip :) There is an inference that downforce doesn't do anything ecept lower your top end speed, not sure if this is correct but if it is that is useful to know
 
Guys at the moment i am just fiddling with basic settings, will i see any improvement if i play with advance settings.

Personally i prefere the advanced settings, worth reading through each settings description, dont change anything, go race the car & then have a fiddle :)

Defo worth a play about with em & see if it works for you :)
 
hmmm, i was just in the process of doing a FRAPS recording of a lap. On the very first start lap bit i seemed to have nailed a nice one...

i did a similar thing earlier... had closed FRAPS down before starting:confused: then stuck in a 1:27.0xx and no screenies :( but then messed about with the FRAPS screen recording and got the 1:26 :)

be thankful if you get a couple of days, in week 1 I got 9 whole minutes at the top before Lt Goody beat me. I've still not forgiven him :D

I'll beat his time over the weekend even if it means developing DVT and my thumbs dropping off, that'll show 'im.... :D
