Morning! I’ve been spending some time running the NASCAR leagues. I’ve got a good set up going for the Daytona Tri-Oval and a semi good set up for Homestead and Indy Ovals. I also use this set up on the Homestead Alt circuit and it seems pretty good, just lacks the speed in the long straight away.
Was hoping someone could take a look at these and offer some advice on tweaking them? Currently, my Daytona Tri-Oval will run on average of a 38.4 lap, with the fastest recorded of 38.2 (on a Ford). Looking at lap times after a race, I see others pulling 38.1, 37. I’m looking to get a second or two faster with this this set up. I believe it may come down to me using a controller instead of a wheel and that i’m squawking tires through half the corners, though keeping a relatively straight line throughout.

As for my Homestead/Indy set up, it’s relatively fast. But i seem to not have enough speed to keep up with others in the straight aways. For the most, i can catch them and pass coming out of corners. But once the straight aways come, they pass me back or just take off and i can’t catch up.
