for anyone looking at tuning cars this seems a decent spreadsheet: clicky (http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AtBDxiC-oePkdE1kSXlpV3pwa1BFWVJDLWVDWTNJR2c&hl =en)
1. Click on FILE, in the top left corner.
2. Select DOWNLOAD AS
- OpenOffice users should download as an OpenOffice(.ods) file.
- Excel users should download as an Excel(.xls) file.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE -
1. In the yellow fields you will select a drivetype(FF,FR, FA, MR, MA, RR, RA), and enter the vehicles weight(lbs) and front weight distribution. This info is availiable in the upgrade and car selection areas.
FF = Front engine, Front wheel drive.
MR = Mid engine, Rear wheel drive.
RA = Rear engine, All wheel drive.
etc.
2. In the blue fields you will get all of your suspension geometry settings instantly.
3. The orange fields are optional, but will add small compensations into the values to compensate for aerodynamic downforce and differing tire widths. Tire widths are the first three digit number in the tire size located in the tire width upgrade screen. If you do not want to compensate for aero or tires then leave these cells blank.
4. Be sure and input either METRIC or ENGLISH near the top to determine the correct conversions.
theres also an iPhone/iPod app which runs the same things.
seems to be the best help out there but the tunes are not always perfect, they are a good guide though.
