    NOTES: MAKE SURE TO APPLY TUNES TWICE TO ENSURE THAT THEY ARE CORRECTLY INSTALLED! There is a bug that the tune may not be correctly installed if you only apply them once.

    Cars/Tunes listed are tested in rivals for laptimes and against unbeatable drivatars to ensure they are performant, tunes will be from me and some of the top tuners in FH5. I aim to have the fastest/best tunes out there for each car on this list with optimal part selection and tuning settings. Tunes will be no aero/stock rims and size if feasible.

    Cars/Tunes that are listed as "M/C" (Manual & Clutch Recommended) can still be used with Automatic or Manual, but they will be faster with clutch.

    RWD tunes are not recommended for keyboard users due to not having the required throttle control available.

    2nd gear launch can help with high-power RWD cars, tapping/feathering the throttle while braking and revmatching on downshifts can help with FWD braking.
