Bring your stability up to 50, ride some tracks for a while until you start to get used to the turning, jumping etc. Then bring it down to 40 or 45, and work your way down to 20. It will take a while to learn how to play this game good.

Would it be ok if I put the stability on 100? Lol

I started at 100 then down to 80 then jumped to 40 and finally 20. Important thing is to not get discouraged and to stick with the set stability you have for that time. Moving it up and down before your used to any will make it more difficult IMO.

^^ all good advice up there like brina said you got to stick with the stability for a bit i run a 15 stability and when im off its usually me not the setup you will find 90 % of the time once you learn to ride laps smooth its about warming up you and your setup instead of major changes. suspension is another huge thing next to the most important thing in this game and that is Patients....This game can get frustrating and with a faster rider and faster setup evolving over time that Patients will only grow cause it gets harder to ride faster like real life.

Low stability + high steering strength and force. Don't worry about whipping right now, you should be focusing on not crashing and riding clean laps rather then whips.

let off the gas then crank on the bars on the lip, hit the gas right on take off, get sideways and panic rev to try and get it straightened out before landing! something like that :D

Time in the saddle without changing anything is critical. If you chase around your stability and suspension setup without getting somewhat used to it, then you'll really be frustrated. Even if you're a good rider IRL, this needs lots of practice. Start with higher steering damping and roll damping and low compression damping and higher rebound damping with low spring rates to have a more forgiving setup. Also, run the Points Series in Amateur mode and work your way up to get used to it. Patience and lots of practice too.

I agree, this game is friggin awesome! It would be even better if the front end was a bit more stable like in real life though.
