OK I will ask the first question.

I used to play NASCAR 2003 and I wasn't that good and had more fun turnking the car around and hitting the field head on. Someone once said you have to setup the cars to the track as you would a real race car.

I knew cars do different setups for different tracks as I have been watching NASCAR for many years.

How much setup do drivers on here do to their cars each week. Do drivers here keep notes on what worked and what didn't.

Thanks

We keep a log book, from the weather to tire pressures and tire temp after each practice, heats and features. It works for us, also if we have any issues we can go back and check what worked for us.

we do this as well as what we change with the motor/carb/gear, etc. from week to week.

Corner weights are apparently very important in TC and up so this year we will be watching our weight percentages closely as well.

I,ve allways called it my "Play Book" sometimes at a differant track we may need a differant rate of front spring, or tire pressures,or even wedge, Its all in my play book. I swear that there are gremlins in the shop, changing things while we sleep. I use the Play book weekly. And its closely guarded. I wrench on three pure stocks, three play books.
