What’s the latest on the Nascar Heat 5 setups that you’ve been on the lookout for? Have you found any good setups or sticks to those that are found to be rather outdated?
Every NASCAR fan understands what a good Cup setup in NH5 means, especially in such a difficult circuit as Pocono.
If your target is Gaining low 53 seconds timing then justapik justassure of your luck, this time round, you are going to be blessed with a great car setup that will enable you to hit that much sought after time.
A right front camber has been set negative at -2.7 degrees. A left front camber has been set positiva at 3.2 degrees.
You will need a quite harsh ff camber around 1.500° but as the name suggests it will prevent the rear sliding too much when you try to help turn the car in during entry.
It is very very important in tracks/laps like these not to have any entry over steer as it will only serve to hurt your confidence and subsequently your overall lap time.
As for the gearing there will be a rapid use of the first 3 gears where the rear end ratio will be 3.40 as the track is pretty long and elevated speeds are needed.
Make sure that your elevation from the corners is very delicate so that you can safely place your car back on the straight on throttle, straight not losing any speed in the straight.
