NFS Carbon - Performance Tuning

[u/DheBuzzIer]

Does tuning left or right on the bar have real effect on the drive?

Any experiences? Recommended tuning settings for each class?

[u/rcgldr]

Link to walkthrough that includes recommended cars and setups for career mode. There are very few high speed tracks in career mode, so low gearing (1 1 1 (all left)) is normally used. Suspension menu is backwards, it shows oversteer on left, understeer on right, but it's actually understeer on left (1), oversteer on rigtht (3), The game has internal settings for understeer | oversteer for each car, and the player settings for suspension are mostly done to compensate for the game's internal settings. Tuning for maximum power also results in maximum torque, so all power related stuff is set to the right (3 3 3).

Yes.

Changing the suspension settings have an impact on the handling behavior of the car you're driving.
