Check your... 1. Steering control calibration. If the pedals aren't registering correctly, you won't get as much horsepower. 2. Tire pressures. They should ALL be 60 psi to reduce rolling resistance. Dan Belcher Team Racing Unlimited http://simcrashes.cjb.net

I've recently become an on-line racing addict, but I'm having problems with Dega. My set-up run's 195mph, which when I'm playing off-line is good, but when I go on-line - they are all running 200 to 202mph. I've spent the last 5 days tweaking my set-up - but can't seem to gain the 5mph needed to run up front. Am I missing something? or am I just that bad of a crew chief? Thanks JCook

Well, For one your power band at Tally (And Daytona...) is between 7900-8000 RPM's. So I would suggest a 3.10 gear for 70*, that seems to work best. Chances are you were trying to pull about 9000 RPM's. By the way a good goal for 70* is 200.000 mph , fastest would be 200.450 mph. (Just start with the QUALIFY.stg and learn a line, then play with your weight adjustments) _____________________________________ Daniel Shirley [email hidden] ICQ UIN: 5335238 #12 Penske Auto Centers Sim Racing Car http://www.penskeautocenters.com/ Member of 21st Century Motorsports http://www.simracing.org/21stcenturymotorsports/ Official Sim Racing Team of Times Square 2000 http://www.timessquare2000.com/ ������������������������������������� Me wrote in message <[email hidden]>... >I've recently become an on-line racing addict, but I'm having problems with >Dega.

If its a pedal problem, calibrat your pedals by pushing your gas only 90% of the way for DEGA and DAYTONA ONLY!!! THis way by flooring it you re sure to get complete use of gas Are they running 201 and 202 laps or top speeds, they might be running a qualifying setup with like 45% grille tape, and if you still can't get it up (no pun intended) try searching through your N3 manual for stuff that could help you gain speed, and search online for dowloadable setups Me wrote:

Also, drafting is crucial to keep up with the leaders. Personally i have raced with the original ace setup plenty of times and keep up easily. Drive a smooth line, and draft. --james
