That is such a hard question to answer. In GPL, I race with my qual setup and then Race setup (same setup). In Nascar 3 you have to change setups. In real life you have to change setup a lot. There are a number of ways of doing this. There is no right or wrong answer. You could soften the suspension to try and compensate for teh lack of grip (cold tires), or stiffen the suspension to try and generate some heat in the tires. Just depends.....:-) James Richard S Beckett <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:8ial8g$[email hidden]... x-no-archive: yes I meant to add: Assuming that the change in tyres does not affect the overall balance of the car, just the level of grip. --- Chaps, If I was to set a car up to be as fast as possible on soft, grippy tyres that wouldn't last long enough to use in the race, then changed to less grippy ones, would the setup remain the fastest, or would I need to modify it again? What about the other way around? Taking the fastest setup on hard tyres to more grippy ones. Thanks. R.
