Can someone please tell me how to best use the car setup options in RC? What situations should I use hard/soft tires, heavy/light suspension, high/low suspension and so on? If it's in the user manual I couldn't find it, feel free to refer me to a page number if I missed something. Thanks! Joe McGinn _________________________ GA-Sports Writer http://www.ga-sports.com/
There's a FAQ coming up on www.simracingnews.com. At the moment it's only mentioned on the site, and the faq itself is not uploaded yet, but I hope it has got some info about the setups. Andre

Basic set up rules, and if RC is a SIM it will abid by these rules :-) Tires, pretty obvious really, soft is more grip, hard last longer, so on a long tarmac stage, use a harder compound, on a short gravel/mud stage, use a softer compound, and some variations thereof Suspension, the bumpier the stage, the softer the suspension, but you need to compensate for this with increasing the ride height to avoid "bottoming out" the suspension, you will always want the car as low as possible, but you have to compromise this if you soften up the suspension, so for a smoothe tarmac stage, drop the car all the way down and put on the hardest shocks/springs, on a bumpy forest section, soften it up and increase the ride height Don't have the game in front of me right now so I can't remember "all" the options (all 6 of them that is :-) , but the steering and gearing bit is pretty obvious I guess, can't for the life of me remember the last setting though... Beers and cheers (uncle) Goy
