Hey Guys,

Let's quit feeding this Bryon guys ego and talk about racing.  I need
help with the IMS setup on INDYCAR.  I posted a week or two ago and only
got two responses.  I'm not asking for someones record setup, just for a
little nudge in the right direction.  Here is the setup I am currently
running at about 217-218.

Tire    Compound        PSI     Camber  Shocks
RF      MED             40      -2.32   50%
RR      MED             39      -1.84   40%
LR      SOFT            40      -1.07   85%
LF      SOFT            47      -1.52   90%

STAGGER: +0.035         STEERING LOCK: 13
FW:  4.43               RW:  3.99

1:      11.20
2:      8.60
3:      7.00
4:      6.00
5:      5.10
6:      4.60

ANTI ROLL BARS: FRONT 4  REAR 7
BRAKE BIAS: 5   BOOST LEVEL:  9

ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED!!

With this setup my tire temperatures are equal across the tire.  I know I
can go soft all the way around and get more heat in the outside tires,
but when your running 15 laps at a time, that tire blows.  

Thanks,

Doug Borders

Exact stats deleted.


am running NASCAR and can tell you that someone else's setup isn't the
golden ride.  I got a hold of another drivers setup and tried it and
couldn't do jack with it.  I thought "man, this guy doesn't now sh**
about setting up a car".  Then I watched as he was posted in the top five
in the racing league - obviously the guy knows something about setting up
the car for HIMSELF.  Driving style and line are a problem that no amount of
setup can correct for.

Hope that helped, Doug.
