take a look at your tires..>>
I've got enough problems just trying to aim the darn thing and you want me to
stick my head out the window and look at the tires?!!
Mike
LOL.
I have not ran this track in N2003 yet, but I remember the entrance to
T3 being real tricky... always wanted to swap ends. After a lot of
practice I finally figured out the entrance to T3 and it wasn't so bad
after that.

I just joined RASCAR, and was trying some practice at Chicagoland. I also
noticed the fast setup being very loose. Looks like a bad track for me to
make my debut. I'll just hang around the back and try to make some laps.

I dont use the brake on most courses and I 've found rolling out of the
throttle to 3/4 and then to 1/2 throttle will settle the car a little better,
doesnt push the weight to the front so quickly. And in the worst cases, when I
lift and the car twitches, just a quck blip of the gas will give it forward
bite. I'm down in the mid 29.xxx now...but still not comfortable at all in
traffic. The first few laps are gonna be ugly, I think.
And what makes it sillier, is I have had the benefit of driving around that
track at 165+ mph. Also was driven around by Scott Sharp...you'd think it
would help. Jesus I'm gonna look like an idiot. Maybe I will just hang at the
back with you and watch the fireworks from a better vantage point :)))
Mike
Seems like it's gonna be very crowded at the back. We could have more
traffic there then the rest of the guys up front or in the mid-pack . ;o)

If every driver shows his true speed and stays within his abilities the
field will spread out fine, IMO.

Loose? Are you running the FAST setup?
The thing is good for about 3 laps before it starts pushing like a
dump-truck!
If you are loose going in, you are either letting up off the gas way too
much, or you are *** the brakes. Otherwise, getting loose going in is
pretty hard to do and all but impossible coming out unless you are wagging
your tail.
Tim would absolutely HATE the tire wear :)
I've gotten down into the 29.7's, but the tires go away so fast that I can't
get better than that right now, and trying to run a race that fast will send
you to the back in no time.
I see a lot of mangled right-front fenders in this one :)

This time, I whole-heartedly agree. It's a dump truck.
