Hello, I am having a really bad time at Richmond. For some reason I cannot get my car to tighten up, it's always loose. I have tried other peoples setup, different racing lines(although there really isn't more than 1 good line there), I have even resorted to turning the auto-brake on as a last resort. I still am not able to keep the car on the track. Shoot I have even had the car swing around on the backstretch doing a measly 75 mph. Any help would be appreciated. I have only been able to get lap times of around 118 - 120mph and those are not consistent. Thanks John Race on and may you engine never fail.

John- The only way I've been able to run Richmond is to have 54-55% crossweight, and around 51-52% rear. Make the shocks soft. No higher than 40% front, and 45% rear. BE REAL EASY ON THE GAS. Slow way down on the entrance to the turns, and S-L-O-W-L-Y get back on the gas coming out. Use all of the track coming out of turn four. I have get 122-123 pretty consistantly (as long as my brain don't fail) and some 124's. Good Luck Mike
