So how long does this setup run for? Looking at the set up I would believe
only 30-40 laps. The AI cars pit after 50-60 laps. Fast setups like this don'
t win long races.
RF shock is WAY to soft. This should burn the tire right off after 40 laps.
This shock softness with the cross weight is sure to burn the RF tire off.

Standard disclaimer
I have had no trouble winning a race at 100% opponents strength and
50% race length. At a track like The Rock, cautions seem to be all
too frequent and thus rarely can I run a good 60 lap stretch. If you
don't like the setup, don't use it, but try it first to be sure.
Driving style is a huge part of setups and thus the same setup will
behave vastly differnet depending on who is driving it. I know this
setup works for me, but I will try your suggestion and tinker around
a little. Any more speed I can get here can't hurt.

For everyone's information I just put this to the test. Both right
side tires go yellow on lap 60. The LR goes yellow on lap 71. Both
of the right sides then go red on lap 82 (Only .9 gallons of fuel at
this point). I ended up running out of gas halfway through lap 85,
with a four tires still in one piece. I grant you that the right
sides were on their last legs, but I was still turning 144-145's at
the very end. By the way, I pushed this setup much harder than I
would during a race, never letting the laps get below 145 until the
very end. During an actual race, you should have no trouble keeping
up with the computer cars' pit schedule who by the way pit between
laps 61 and 73. This is listed in the Speedway line of the track
text files I you ever want to check it out. You can also edit these
numbers to lower or raise the pit window for the computer as well.

Why do you have settings listed for the camber on the rear wheels?
Can these settings be adjusted in one of the text files for the game,
or is a patch needed to change these?
