N2 Camber screen in car set-up

LF and RF are backwards on my screen. I have looked at a lot of articles about N2 and all the set up screens show RF on the left and LF on the right. Mine is opposite. Any one have a clue what went wrong? Oh, i bought N2 when it first came out so i have the first version. Still looking over the patch, but as of now i haven't experienced any problems. Tom

Actually, they're not backwards; your viewpoint of the car drawing is head-on. God Bless, Steve

The artwork is drawn as per a real setup sheet. (Looking at the front of the car, with the car driving "out" of the page.) That's how the controls were up to just about the last minute. The controls were swapped because they were so close to the tire temp readouts, there was a concern that people would be studying the tire temps, and "link" to the wrong tire and start adjusting the wrong camber, getting even more frustrated with the garage/setup process. So, the controls were moved to correspond with the tire temp readouts, making them differ from most pre-production articles and the manual. ---Jim Sokoloff

If you are looking at magazine articles, you are probably looking at photographs which are reversed. It is normal to have the LF on the left and the RF on the right.
