Road Racing tune for the 2018 Mercedes-AMG E 63 S
Surface: Road
Tarmac circuits reward stiffer springs and lower ride height. For a A-class AWD build, expect ~2.1–2.3 Hz front / rear ride frequency, soft toe-out front for turn-in, and aero biased ~50% front / ~70% rear.

Dirt Racing tune for the 2018 Mercedes-AMG E 63 S
Surface: Dirt
Hard-pack dirt drops spring rates and damper stiffness by half vs. road. Expect higher ride height (~5 in), more positive front camber (less than road, ~-1.5°), and zero aero (dirt removes downforce settings).

Drift tune for the 2018 Mercedes-AMG E 63 S
Surface: Drift
Drift tunes are deliberately rear-unfriendly: high rear pressure (~38 psi) to break grip, max rear diff accel for sustained slides, low rear camber (~-1°). Caster jumps to ~6° for self-centering at angle.
