Drag Racing - Tuning Guide

Can anybody explain the tuning screen for Drag Racing (the mobile game)? Please don't give a list of tuning settings for particular cars.

I'd appreciate a description of what the settings mean and why you would tune the settings.

Solution 1:

I assume that you are referring to Drag Racing for Android, created by Creative Mobile Games.

The Dro has an excellent tutorial about tuning. In general, the tuning process is a process to optimize your car for a particular use, for example, maximum acceleration without burning the tires in the 1/4 mile to win against those pesky cars that beat you off the line. The great thing about tuning is that a well-tuned car can be much faster than its original settings. The bad thing about tuning is that a badly tuned car will perform worse than factory settings, leading you to a fair bit of frustration about the whole experience. There is a lot of trial and error involved here, which is why you might see some people bragging about their tuning settings (or refusing to share them) if they work particularly well.
