I think I've got most of the other settings down, but I still don't know what to do with my shocks. Is there some tangible indication of where the ideal setting is? (e.g. tire temps) Do I want to have all of my tires approx. the same temp? (They are all equal across the tire) Please help, I wanna break 0:58.00 at Long beach. Later, ============================================================================== ==============================================================================

Actually I broke 0.58.000 with the Ace setup, with less than 20 gallons onboardI I took some wings off and it worked. "Michael Schumacher - The 1994 Formula 1 World Champion" Alexander Kriventchev. (a fan of all 26 drivers entering a race)

I have found that on road course if you take shock out of both the front shocks it will give you more bit in the turns. I don't have my game at this computer but if i remember on ovals the front shocks should be harder than the rears. Also at LB I was told to practice w/ the ACE setup in qualifying w/ approx 18 gal. and I would make it into the top 10 easily, and you know what it's true. WORK on your driving not setup at the road courses

Oh I forgot if you don't have a steering wheel T1 buy it. They are great!!!

Try road course settings with 85-95% front shocks, 100% rear, front sway bay full stiff, rear sway bar mid setting. If a course has some faster corners of mainly one type (eg Elkhart Lake right handers) then you can set the front inside turning tyre's shock softer than the front outside, say 10-15% softer. Make sure you have a good camber setting on all tyres, somewhere between -1.5 and -2.0 approx. Play with the wing setting, but if you have front about .8 more than the rear you will get good steering into the corners. Best of luck Chris..
