Nascar-car setup

5 posts by 5 people · 29 Jun 1996 - 09 Jul 1996

I'm trying to experiment at fine tuning the car set up for better performance. The QUALIFICATION setting is just not good enough with opponents at 100% and the ACE setting isn't good enough for races either. I need information on the effects of the following settings -TIRE PRESSURE, STAGGER, CROSS WEIGHT and SHOCK SETTINGS. What is the effect of these factors? Does anyone have settings that have proven to be good for them? My car is a Ford on Goodyears thanx!

I have a large collection of setups at my homepage, as well as a copy of the quikfix setup guide by Jan Kohl that you can download. It tells you what you need to adjust for the conditions you have. -- Brian Fox Nass '96 BGN 'A' Driver http://www.4w.com/pages/fox AND/OR http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/1238 Fox Motorsports _______________________/\/\_____ \_ /////// __ __'_--/ "Sly as a Fox" \-------/ / /\______/ / Speed doesn't always /_/ /_/ win the race! \\\\\\ // ||\\ // || \\\\\\\\\||_//\\\\\||_//_________________________________________________ __
I've found that the NASCAR Racing manual has been a good place to start... -- +------------------+--------------------------------------------+ | G.

Try connecting to http://sneezy.dcn.ed.ac.uk/simnews/index.htm to get started. I don't think anyone really knows the answers to your question, but this should get you started to finding some setup's and tips. Good Luck, ds
