Can anyone out there help me..

 I have Nascar v1.21. I have just recently discovered that at Talledega
I can't keep up. I run my engine right out to the max red line and have
all my spoilers down. The best I can get is a lap of 188.435..Compared
to the rest of the cars running 194 average..
Can anyone help me with my setup or give me a new setup to try?
Thanks..

Try this one out, for me it will posts regular upper 195's in the draft
with a top of 197.710.  When your on the track by yourself, it will run
at about 193 or so. By the way, yes this is using version 1.21 and
random weather.  For other setups, be sure to take a look at my web
page:  http://userwww.service.emory.edu/~ebusch/

Hi Eric.  I don't think that's fast enough.  The softer shocks will
create more drag on each tire and therefore limit your top speeds.  At
Talladega you should be able to run at 194.5 by yourself with a heavy
fuel load.  The downside is more rapid tire wear though.

Bill.

You're right.  It came with the 1.2 and 1.21 upgrades.  Although, you really
have no excuse, sitting there without the track pack.  $20!  BUY it!

You can't.  For each track, the rear camber is automatically adjusted
for you (i.e. it's not user adjustable).  The program that I use to
convert setups into text files (ncsetup.exe) doesn't know this.  Instead
it just prints out a direct text conversion of the .STG files including
the rear camber setting.

How did you set the camber for your rear tires? In my version (v1.21) I can
only set the front tire cambers - the rear tires are fixed.
