I decided to make a basic troubleshooting guide in order to help others who might be having problems getting their UDTRA and Outlaw latemodels tweaked right. Since everyone's driving style's are different, some of these changes may not work as well for you as they do others. All the information below is correct to my best knowledge and is by no means the only adjustments you should try, but should give you a good starting point to go from.
I have all my setup's available for you to download if your interested... Check the main page for a setup files for which ever add on your are running. AmickRacing.com/dtr
Also keep your eye out for future updates that will have more in depth explinations of setup how-to's.
