This is completely unacceptable and will not be tolerated. But after applying my new set of upgrades I discover the top speed of this car is… 130mph?! I upgraded it to be at the top of A-Class with all-wheel drive (AWD) and better brakes and tires and suspension. Take this 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Demon for example. If you’re like me and prefer the six-speed racing transmission, then what you’ll often find on the ‘Gearing’ tab is that your car has a top speed of “way less than you were expecting.” The first thing you’ll want to do is navigate to the ‘Upgrades & Tuning’ section of your nearest Festival Site or any Home which you’ve already purchased.įrom there you’ll want to switch to the ‘Gearing’ tab, which is the second from the left. Let’s assume that you’re done customizing your vehicle. Thankfully this can be remedied with some common sense and just a minute of your time, by adjusting a single variable (usually) on the tuning screen. Running the default suspension, braking and aerodynamic settings won’t be a problem for 99% of players in 99% of races, but one wonky default Final Drive setting and your car is ruined.Īfter you’ve upgraded a car – including whichever racing transmission you prefer – you’ll often find that your new set of wheels either tops out at a ridiculously low-speed relative to its power, or is not making use of all the gears in your transmission, and neither of those is optimal. As someone who has nearly a thousand hours invested into the three most recent Forza Horizon titles, I can tell you that the area where a “default tune” is most problematic is in the gearing.
