Drivers:

I'm not gonna say much about this.  But have many of
your experienced the problem in the NASCAR 2 Garage
that when you modify a setup it destroys some settings
in the SAVE SETUP.  The problem here is setups that are
downloaded from other MIGHT (I SAY MIGHT) BE ILLEGAL!!

You can still race with these setups, but they are illegal.

The patches themselves account for some of this.
The two original versions and the latest version are similiar.
Any setup saved within the sim using just the first patch has
different tire compounds, and different rear cambers.

If you download someone's setup that they created in version 1.02, and
then modify it in version 1.00, 1.01, or the latest version, most
likely it won't handle like the author intended as the compounds and
rear cambers will be corrected.

Nice of them to release a patch that could make your setups illegal
and get you accused of altering setups when in fact you did nothing.

"get you accused of altering setups" by who?

The patches addressed the problem of being able to use a hex editor to
select "in-between" values. (values that you couldn't choose in the
garage user interface). That's been corrected; hex editting the setups
is now of NO value, so what's the complaint now?
