Stagger in NASCAR Legends is adjusted with TIRE PRESSURE. If you increase pressure, the tire gets bigger, so you get more stagger on that wheel. In that era, tire makers for NASCAR hadn't gotten sophisticate enough to adjust stagger to order. Charlie Heath / Papyrus John Courtney <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Good deal. I hadn't gotten worried about it not being a seperate option, ala N1, since that's what I had remembered, that they mainly used pressure back then to adjust the stagger. Wasn't it due to those tires having stiffer treadwalls than sidewalls, where the radials of today are reverse? -- Ken's Sig 3.01 "Who is the more foolish?
