Have you been seeking the newest and coolest setups in Nascar Heat 5, but have not been able to find good solutions?
Indeed, we have witnessed how crucial it can be to have a good set up for NASCAR in NH5, particularly considering how much of a difficult track Bristol is.
Aim for a time in the mid 15s range? Then note that you should be nearly full throttle throughout the entirety of the lap, with only a small lift off the throttle when entering corners.
That will help you a lot by giving you a good drive out of the corners and not scrubbing too much speed.
While setting your fast lap you are looking to run a negative 3.0 camber in the front right and 2.5 degrees in the front left along with a wheel lock of around 18 degrees.
Benefits of having that high positive camber on the front left for you will come during the initial turn in phase, whilst the negative one on the right wheel will assist in the mid corner grip phase which has the highest lateral load on the tires.
We would suggest a very stiff front swaybar around 1.675 as it will enable you to rotate the car without disturbing the rear too much while turning in.
It is very crucial not to have too much oversteering in the car because you do not want to ease off the throttle because the back end is coming around.
When it comes to gearing, I would recommend you a 3 gears setup with a 4.71 rear end ratio.
The draft in this case won’t be that effective but it is still advisable to pick one at the start of the lap.
