hi volker,

ich bin noch keine Runde Talladega gefahren, und werde bis zum Rennen heute Abend auch nicht dazu kommen. Wenn ich glück habe, kann ich überhaupt mitfahren.

Noch etwas zum draufsetzen:

Ich bin alles andere als ein SS-Fahrer, eher das krasse gegenteil. Ich hab normalerweise auf SS´s wahnsinnige Schwierigkeiten.
Und dadurch auch überhaupt keine Ahnung von Setup-Technischen Eintstellungen bei diesen wirklich sehr langweiligen Kursen

Meine Frage nun: Falls der Fall heute Abend eintreten sollte, dass es cloudy wird, wäre ich wirklich sehr aufgeschmissen. Ich rechne heute Abend sowieso mit keinem sehr guten Ergebnis, aber ich will auf jeden Fall ankommen.
Was ändert man bei einem SS (in diesem Fall eben Dega) wenn es cloudy, oder wärmer, bzw. käter wird?

Tape / Gearing wie auf allen anderen Strecken auch, Front Bias etc. kann so bleiben.

Also:
10°F = 5% Tape (evtl. auch eher 15°F pro 5% Tape, bin mir nicht mehr sicher)
20°F = 1 Klick Diff Ratio (~ +-0.050:1 Final Gear Ratio)

Cloudy statt Clear:
Diff Ratio 2 Klicks runter, 5% weniger Tape.

vielen, vielen Dank

Volker:

What changes do you believe are necessary if the weather is 77 and cloudy?

Thanks,

Foot

Qual:
Reduce diff ratio until your 4th gear ratio is 2.80x:1.

Race:
Reduce diff ratio until your 4th gear ratio is 2.70x:1, reduce tape to 65 or 60%, not sure about that. Well, and maybe you'll want to move about 10 lbs back in order to make the car turn better.

What program do I need to download setups

A web browser to watch this site and download files (looks like you have one) and WinZip to extract the .zip files into your D:\Papyrus\NASCAR Racing 2003 Season\players\"your__name"\setups\talladega folder.

Thank You!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:d :d :d :d :d :d :d :d :d

well, I for my part put it directly into the C:\Papyrus\NASCAR Racing 2003 Season\tracks\talladega folder. This way you should be able to have it for any driver name you might use in NR2003...

I have had to add toe out to stablize this set-up for myself. Do you run lower than 100% linearity at Dega Volker? Will the toe be that much of a factor, tire wear, speed?

1. No, 100% at any kind of track.
2. No, doesn't play a big role I think.

The last couple weeks I have DL setups from here, Volker. I end up using a combination of what I came up and what you came up with and they have been pretty darn good. I just wanted to say I appreciate having something to compare. No idea how you can drive Marti consistently with that much brake bias though.

Anyway, thank god for this site cause I abhore working on sets for SS. Boring as hell to practice, just to have someone who thinks they are invincible ram into you. What would be nice to save myself doing ANYTHING for SS is a chart for temp vs. gear vs. tape. Cause 82F I still have to do some setup work to get that magic ratio. Not asking for this as it would be a pain, but it would be cool.

Thanks Again,
Brian

DL'ed your setup Volker. Thanks.

I ran your and Patrick Marx' german conversation above through the Google translator and your name came up as "Volker chopping man"!
A new nick maybe?

Regards,
Magnus Berglund

How about a cloudy setup for dega?

Oops, I forgot to upload them...here you are.

LOOOOOL!!!

I use your setups every week, and they are great I very rarely change anything, sometimes i have to because i drive some tracks alot different i guess. I just want to sya thanx for the sets bud, they have really helped me out

what changes if any would you make for 80 clear w 7mph.
