Start with the ACE setup and learn the track. Ok after you have done that for about 2
hours then it's time to tweak your setup. Remember to make your adjustments a little
at a time don't go in and change all of your shocks at once by 20% make small adjustments
and practice ,practice . practice. The problem I had when I first started the game was the
car felt like it was pushing at every track, I soon learned that I was driving in to the
turns to hard sometimes you have to go a little slower to go fast. and doesn't hurt to let
the car roll a little before getting back in the throttle.
Camber
I never mess with the camber as long as my tire temps are even all
the way across the tire.
Gear
I usually like to see that oil light blink one or two time before
I let off for the turn normally I only adjust 4th gear
Grill Tape
On big tracks like Talladega I run as much as I can without blowing
the motor ( In a Race about 70% / 100% for Qualifying) On short tracks I don't worry much
about it
I hope this has helped
