Going to guess these are Pro setups and no assist.

Yeah! I will try some out today and experiment. I've got a couple good setups (I think) that I can compare too. Of course, I will have to learn how to drive them for awhile. Ahh, the art of driving...thanks mike and its great talking with you in the Nascar strings - yeah!

I used the Las Vegas setup on No Assists and I was all over the place. I even tried to keep it on the track for a longer run, as he mentioned that it was loose at first but tightened up nicely.

It didn't work at all for me.

No - I ran it with them all off. I never thought to try it with those on. I was getting frustrated with it and gave up.

I also just saw in an earlier post that those setups are used with the controller and from what i have heard around the block you have to tighten way up when you are using the wheel

Ahhh, see I was thinking that may have been the case. I can see really having to tweak the damn setups to be fast with the controller, so I finally just stuck with the veteran setup with my low assists and making a few small adjustments. My lap times haven't been that bad.

No worries - I don't rely on the draft for my best times, unlike some (you know guys that use 99 caliber teams) might.

Thats kind of funny. That is how we always used to designate our best lap times. Those that are stored in best laps, in the game, are during practice, qualifying or during the race. No biggie but some racers might not know that so it could be misleading.

(I've only used OSU once, when schriney requested osu v wisconsin online so I hear ya on that point. And fyi, I don't like it. I play with OSU in my dynasty and there is no place to go but down even with the best recruiting class (went from 99 to 96 into year 2) so that kind of takes a fun challenge out. Atleast I can try going into year 3.

If you notice, he did not take credit for these. He even gave you the credit. And you posted these on a Message Board that's open to anyone who registered

hey gotbapes.....Mikes was only trying to better our community by posting your setups here.
it is actually a compliment to you that he thought your setups were good enough to be posted here!

I hope you stick around and spend some time here.
if you have any other issues please feel free to PM me.

thanks and good luck

First off, he did not claim the setups were his, he gave credit to you and the other user he copied them from. Secondly, if you are so worried about somebody taking your setups, why would you post them on a public message board? And lastly, did you copywrite these setups?
