What's wrong with the ACE setups? Those are good out of the box. Someone else's setup may not work the same for you. Everyone has their own style of driving. The ACE setups are better than they were in N2, and you can modify them to suit your style, instead of counting on someone else's setup to do the job for you. Racing isn't only about setups. It takes practice to learn the track, driving line, braking/shifting points, etc. etc. I'm not meaning to be condescending or anything here, I am just trying to paint (no pun intended) an accurate picture of what to expect should you try a setup not created by you. >anyone seen any sites with good setups for n3 ?
Yeah, I agree. Unlike the setups included with the earlier iterations, those ACE setups in N3 are a very good starting place. Load 'em up and start tweaking for your driving style from there. After all, hitting those setups are supposed to be a big part of the enjoyment of the sim, and if you don't partake you're missing a lot of the fun. Jerry Morelock > What's wrong with the ACE setups?

I would like to know if the setups are particular to each make of car? I mean, is one setup good just for Ford, or is it better for a Chevy or Pontiac? Or does it really matter, since Nascar is a spec series anyway. -- Richard "ZZ" Busch Official member: Sim Racing Mag Honda Challenge Screamers Racing League NASROC ---------------- Busch Motorsports: Remember racecar is racecar spelled backward ----------------- Busch Carpentry: Plans?, Oh, you mean that napkin sketch?

Not that I've seen. If they were, there'd be 3 sets of each setup, I would think.

I don't mean to be condescending here but, wouldn't this line of thinking also apply to running the ACE setups? I will agree that the ACE setups in N3 seem to be much better than N2 but, when all is said and done, they are still one persons' idea of a decent setup for a certain track. So you still have to learn to drive them, just as you would with any setup created by anyone else. So your idea that someone else's setup may not work for you doesn't wash. Dave Casey Casey94 (TEN)
