N2: Need a setup for "Daytona"

  Enough of this ***about the converter of the converted tracks back to
being converted.  
  I am in need of some good no-plate Talladega set-ups.  We're running in
fairly warm weather (80 degrees), no wind, Chevrolet.  The best I can manage
is about 206.xxx for qualifying, and about 209-210 in the draft.
  With my qualifying set-up that I have now, the car wants to drift up in the
corners.  I've tried taking out wedge, softening the RF shock, moving weight
to the rear, etc., but when I do make changes, the car gets worse, and the
front-end seems to "hop" up the banking toward the wall.
  Here's a question:  in NASCAR, the teams all soften the rear springs as low
as they can go.  Does this work (or SHOULD this work) in the sim?  I've tried
it, but then I've had to make DRASTIC changes to the rest of the car.

  Any help is appreciated.  Thanks!

Well man.  I have found that with the no-plate stuff at Talladega.  You
need to let off or put up with it.  You just have to set the car up to NOT
let the front end hop up the track.  The reason it is pushing up the track
is because you are going 20 mph faster into the turns than with the plate
in.  You need to either let off or just let the thing drift up and get a
run off the turns.
