Thank you so much I just won my first career cup race in my first career cup start at Talladega in the three star Germain racing #13 car on legend difficulty thank you so much this setup is amazing!
I love this! You even go into detail why you do certain things and what to change if you don’t like what’s going on. It’s like school. Input...more input!
Great setup. Had me running a 43.050 in race. Started in 40th and did really well with all assists off, playing on legend difficulty, 25% length and x4 wear and fuel consumption.
@@marcelojorge_2006 Losen the setup a bit and your right tires will wear a bit more evenly. He says in the video what to do if you want to tighten or loosen the setup.
Thank you Sir for really taking the time and effort to put these videos out! They really help clear up some of the setup issues in the NH5 game. Some numbers dont seem to make sense, but as you know, the sim game here likes to go against the physics of real world applications in some settings.
Its the setup. The Camber is WAY too much. Puts undue wear on the right front. You have to increase that right front camber. You'll lose a little right front corner grip and a little speed through the corners. But it's the only way to make a tire last longer than a handful of laps.
Thanks for this tutorial. I got the game last night and have been 2 seconds slower than the AI... Spent all my preorder money to start a truck team so will be trying this tonight
Thank man for taking the time and sharing this. I'm playing with a hand controller with a built in steering wheel. Big improvement but the AI cars beat me up in career mode. Fun
Much appreciation for these plug & play setups. Since I'm just starting they have been very helpful. I'd like to ask one question (or maybe more 😎 you didn't say what the steering offset does. Could you explain that? Thanks.
So I always qualify anywhere from 35th - 38th at Daytona just on the standard default setup however after using this setup I have just got pole for the first time on a plate track
Could someone show me a good forum to join to ask or find answers to questions I have about Heat 5? I'm liking the game now that I've found the settings to settle the competitors down a little. Previous to that it was (& still is) a bit frustrating. Thank you Knee Pit for acquainting me with setups to get started. Much appreciated.
I am confused. I have a maxed out truck, 0 driving aids, complete loose set for no speed loss, I hit 0 walls, 0 curbing, maintain 182 mph through the curves, and I still qualify 31st on Talladega. Wtf?
Hello thanks for your great videos about Nascar. But if I do I usually have no chance to qualify against Max Ki. Then use the Tight and Loose setting. Could you make a video where you have good settings for the routes where you simply adjust the car. And roughly explain what a short route and the other best is the simplified setting.
Look up the setup man , he's a monster with setups. I use this guy once n a blue moon just to check out different stuff. But set up man does every type of car or truck as well independently and shows you points of interest etc
Any advice on tightening the race setup? I’ve cranked wedge up and lowered both track bars and I can’t make it through turn 3 on my warmup lap without going completely around.
Did you try increasing the left rear spring to bring to closer to the right side like ex. Like 300 or 350 on left rear spring and 600 on right rear spring?
I'm a little late to the party. I just got the game a few days ago and I came across your video witch is very good by the way. I just had a question. Do the end results depend on your engine? For example my engine is only 75 and as you can imagine it's kind of frustrating watching cars just blow by you in career mode.
That definitely effects it. With an underfunded team you need to grind it out for a while and have lower expectations. I like joining a good team for at least a season to rake up some money before creating my own team.
found one of the setup vids. I see we can change the wheel lock and steering off set. Do you know if this change alters the main steering setting that when do at the start of the game for calibrating the use of our game pad or wheel for those that use it.
Setups fast no doubt about it ran against legendary AI in a crappy career mode car an ran a 44 second lap an held with them all race. BUT I could have won but the RF tire keeps wearing out on me way fast what’s the fix?
Go watch Ray Dillon's asphalt oval setup on youtube. No offense, but you're claiming a stiffer LR spring tightens the car up. That's backward. Good video quality, tho.
I don’t see the option to turn DNF’s on or off anywhere within the game. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thx. I appreciate your setups. I just hit 45.588 @ 206 mph in two car draft. I hit 45.761 no draft. I can really feel the front downforce disappear when I roll up on another car. Thanks and keep them coming. 👍🏾 Cup. I haven’t tried truck yet.
Look at your inner, middle, outer tire temps. If the inside temp is way hotter your air pressure is too high. If your right front has very hot inside temp then you have too much negative camber in the right front for race setup. If outer tire temp is hottest on the left front you are running too positive camber in the left front. Problem is probably in one of those areas. Can't have maxed out camber for the race. Your temps across the tire will tell you what you need to do. In a perfect world you want all 3 sections of the tire to be close to the same temp as possible for race setup. Also if you are wearing out the right front way more than the right rear take out some wedge. Less wedge puts more weight on the right rear and left front and takes weight off the right front and left rear which will help right front tire wear. It won't help the left front though. Might make left front wear a little more.
I cant see where to even put in the custom setups i see on youtube and mine from NH4. Where do i go? Even in the test section i dont get the option to do them like i did in NH4
I uninstalled and then reinstalled the game. Still dont see any spot to do the setups. I dont even get the standard Tight or Loose default setting for it. I never use and driving aides. I am wondering if its a bug of some sort since it was a digital preorder. Thanks for your help on this as well as i want to thank you for your video content. Very informative and helpful.
Does absolutely nothing for the trucks, same time as before, ai are faster than my top speed and I can’t reach the practice time to progress, this gave me hope.
Boa noite. Comecei a jogar Nascar agora e no meu não estou conseguindo encontrar o setup do carro. Poderia me ajudar onde modificar na configuração????
There is ine thing that bugs me in this game lol. In a real race car on a oval dropping left front tire pressure while keeping right front the same does not loosen corner entry, it tightnens corner entry. Backwards on this game. Same thing with shocks. Keeping right front the same and lowering left front will tighten entry. Increasing it will lossen entry. Its the total oppsite of the right front. The game has the right front correct but no the left front. They got the rears right but the front is not. Now if you go too far you mess your stagger up and it will do unpredictabke shit.
before you start the race you have to set it up first. before a race it says car setup in the top right corner. press the button it tells you and then scroll to custom race setup.
You also have to consider the equipment quality. If you're driving for a 3 star team, this setup will not put up front as it would driving for a 5 star team.
Thanks for always keeping us up to speed. Setup increased my speed and decreased my lap times just like you posted
👍
Mine times were still slower

You probably put in the qualifying one, at the end is the racing one
@@NerdyChimera the race setup works great on my tires when in the longer races the only difference is how long i can go before i have to pit

perfect, the only setup that truly worked of all online I found, thank you sir
Literally just did my first online race with the setup and won ur the man thanks brotha

Best set up I’ve had
Thanks for the setup
I like how you explain the setups.
Thank you thank you thank you!! I can NEVER qualify good at Daytona and talladega just qualified 3rd I am normally in the high 20’s to mid 30’s
Love your setups the best I would help promote the channel but love how I’m smoking everyone in Talladega lol.

Why does my car wobble on turns I can’t seem to fix it. When I set it up it’s good but when I start and race it’s wobbling
Works great!
Are you planning releasing setups for the 2022 season of heat 5? I know it is really soon to ask as it was only released 2 days ago.

NASCAR heat 5 uses the draft times from IRL in their database. You get the non draft times in game.

You covered everything different between the 2 setups but I didn't hear you say that you came down on the bump on all 4 shocks by 33% (5 clicks).

Same here, did you ever figure out what to do?
Did you try increasing the left rear spring to bring to closer to the right side like ex. Like 300 or 350 on left rear spring and 600 on right rear spring?
Would you be willing to do a “just getting into NASCAR Heat? This is what the setups do and mean in BEGINNER terms” I would greatly appreciate it 🏁

For me it doesn’t even say anything about setups in the garage
Wonder if I could test an RC dirt setup on this game 🤔🤔
Will these setups work for NH4?
Is everything the same for trucks in qualifying?
How did you get the car setup ?
MY DUMB TEMPS KEEPS GOING UP
How you get to car setup, my version I don't have that option/ Sorry never mind found it
I ran this setup with 3x wear and blew my right front tire in 6 laps
You ran the qual set up race set up is a bit different
But will help your tires out
Do you use this setup for the race too?
I show a Q setup and race setup in the video. Very similar but a couple differences for the race.
@@KneePitGaming great video keep more coming.

So in the cup setup, i can't hit 200 in the straights, any suggestions other than getting a wheel lol
Are they automatic transmission or manual transmission
I want to slightly tighten the race setup just a tad what do you recommend?
Quickest way is to lower the track bar.
I don't have the car setup tab on the top right corner. I am unable to setup my cars. How do I get that to appear??
The game disables custom setups when using diving aids. That's the only reason I'm aware of for the option not to show.
I don’t see the option to turn DNF’s on or off anywhere within the game. Can someone point me in the right direction? Thx.
I appreciate your setups. I just hit 45.588 @ 206 mph in two car draft. I hit 45.761 no draft. I can really feel the front downforce disappear when I roll up on another car. Thanks and keep them coming. 👍🏾 Cup. I haven’t tried truck yet.
Good point Chris. I haven't seen anything on DNF's either. Looks like it's time for some investigative work.
The DNF on/off is in the race settings where you set up your draft and difficulty. I turned mine OFF! lol
I am using this setup and my right front is melting my tire any suggestions??
Look at your inner, middle, outer tire temps. If the inside temp is way hotter your air pressure is too high. If your right front has very hot inside temp then you have too much negative camber in the right front for race setup. If outer tire temp is hottest on the left front you are running too positive camber in the left front. Problem is probably in one of those areas. Can't have maxed out camber for the race. Your temps across the tire will tell you what you need to do. In a perfect world you want all 3 sections of the tire to be close to the same temp as possible for race setup. Also if you are wearing out the right front way more than the right rear take out some wedge. Less wedge puts more weight on the right rear and left front and takes weight off the right front and left rear which will help right front tire wear. It won't help the left front though. Might make left front wear a little more.
My times were still slow and I used the same setup in qualifying as you used. Any suggestions?
Drive better
@@nunyabeezness6487 I have drove just fine ain't even wrecked anyone
For some reason I can’t see the option to do my set up in the xfinity series?
Make sure you are on expert difficulty, won't show up otherwise

I cant see where to even put in the custom setups i see on youtube and mine from NH4. Where do i go? Even in the test section i dont get the option to do them like i did in NH4
If you don't see the option to use custom setups then it could be because of driving aids.

Make sure your AI difficulty is above 95
I am new and dumb. I don't see an option to even make set ups? How can I get to this?
You have to be playing on hard or legend driving assist
Literally still qualified 40th
So you not have to change the setup slightly for each track?
Between Daytona and Talladega? Not really.
Yeah not between Daytona and Talladega but between all other tracks setups will be very different from track to track
Even though it shows Cup, it's for all series right?
Yes, just some minor changes between the 3 series. Such as rear end ratio. Xfinity should be about 2.91 and trucks should be about 3.00-3.10
Same setup for Talledega and Daytona?
Yes he said that
Where do you end up after qualifying in all 3 series?
At the front
Just tried your Q trim setup in the truck and can't run no faster than a 49.1
Cup at Dega won the pole by .02 and I messed up my line
@@BanditJustice the quality of your equipment matters alot too.
