I ran some practice laps with a setup from Indy. Adjusted the gearing, had to nearly max out the ride height just to keep it from dragging (stiff springs as well). Wings were at minimum, tires aren't properly tuned yet...but I was able to drive flat through the corner.

It's entirely possible that as more speed is found that'll change. I dunno.

David Kennard / #4 Panther Racing Dan Wheldon (Camo) / with Custom Skin (U.S. Army / Auto Driveaway / SimHQ)



note: looks like the only change on the chassis config from Indy is the rear wing (?) so it looks like I will need to paint up the wing
(if I can find the TX wing on my skin template, I may have painted over it with solid black lol).

I am willing to try, so let me do a tentative sign up.
(You know how is it with summer and family, I do not yet if I'll be available at the time of the race.)
If there is a #12 car on the field, I would take it, and will race if I am at home.
Thanks!

PS: If someone can make my day easier with a not too hard to drive setup... that would be great.

Stewart found a really nice baseline setup that most of us used the other night; I'm at work right now but I'll post it later on (unless someone else puts it up first).

For me there's nothing wrong with the car, it's more the oval track lol...

I'll have to wait and see how next week pans out before entering this...
