Tuning glossary
Use this page when a calculator gives you a baseline but you still need to understand what each FH6 tuning slider is trying to solve. Start with the car symptom, make one change, then retest the same route.
Do not tune every slider at once. Pick the race type, identify the handling symptom, change the most relevant setting group, and keep a short note after each test run.

Use pressure as a temperature and grip balance tool, not as the only fix for a bad build.
Use final drive for the whole speed range, then adjust individual gears only after testing launch and top speed.
Use camber, toe, and caster to change how the car enters, holds, and exits a corner.
Use ARBs as one of the fastest ways to tune mid-corner balance.
Use ride height, spring rate, rebound, and bump to control weight transfer over bumps and transitions.
Use these late in the tuning pass once the car has a clear role and stable baseline.
Change the setting tied to the main symptom. Understeer usually starts with tires, alignment, ARBs, aero, or differential. Wheelspin usually starts with gearing, differential, tire pressure, and throttle-friendly suspension.
No. Use guides as a baseline, then test one change at a time on the same route. Car weight, drivetrain, tires, class, and controller or wheel setup can change what works.
Yes. Road builds need repeatable cornering, drift builds need angle and recovery, rally builds need bump control, and drag builds need launch grip and gear spacing.
