Forza 4 Tuning Key to help tweak your car tunes to perfection!
Use this key when fine tuning your cars Suspension. If you find a comfortable baseline or setting that works really well, create a save an an lable it "Baseline 1","baseline 2", etc, etc. The best way to tune a vehicle is to do it from the, "Test Drive" located from the "Upgrade" section. Select the type of course you plan to run the car on. Also have a basic idea of what you want the car to be able to do. (Be realistic, a Dodge Challenger is not going to be as nimble as say a Silvia) If you drove the car to level 4 like you were supose to you should know what your car needs an what is its weaknesses and it shouldn't cost you anything.

As a side note Front Bump an Front Rebound should be kept as close as possible, as well as the Rear Bump an Rear Rebound. Alway handle these sttings as groups except when making fine adjusmets to grip at whih point you should remember that front Dampers control the rear Tire Traction an the Rear controls the front.
Always remember make a small adjustment an then drive the car to see how it feels, adding benchmark saves as needed. Tuning takes patence but can mean the diffrence between a good time an a great lap time. Tuning is a part skill an part fine art. but if you use this key I believe you will have the tools to get you start on molding a car to your will on the track.
