For all the people who missed it the first time... here is the NASCAR Quikfix guide. You can print it out and keep it handy so you don't have to get out of NASCAR to read the excellent guide "ncarrw.wri" or go to the sometimes informative manual. NOTE: For those of you who are new to racing, don't think that you can do one fix to correct the car. Many times you may fix one aspect, but it will change another which needs to be readjusted. For example, if you change the rear weight of the car to reduce push, you may find that you get loose exiting the corner now. So therefore you now should readjust shock/tire pressure settings. Anyhow, enjoy!
