Cannot Get Car Setup In Pre-Race Screen

[Cuda]

I am trying to play the career mode and I am at Daytona, and I know the default gear ratio is terrible. The option to change the car setup is not in the pre-race screen though. How to I enable this/get it working?

you can only use setups in simulation mode

Okay, thanks!

One thing I've notice in Career Mode is, on the 1st challenges, you need to reach 30th Place twice. Seemed the game will do everything it can to make sure you done pass that and make it a tough challenge just to get there. On another challege, I needed to get to 25th Place. I was surprised that it did the same thing. I was barely able to get to 25th Place but not past it.

I really question the AI when it seems that it knows your goal and allows you to almost reach your goal mut not pass it. Ive had driver come from far behind, zoom right past me and cut me off by hitting my front bumper just before getting to my goal. Where did that car get such sudden speed to do that? Especially when that car was involved in a wreck prior.

One odd thing I found out from someone else, they were able to edit their Bank and buy all their improvement after just 3 Career Races and still the car was under powered. I was told that the car would suddenlly get a boost of power (unexpectedly), but winning races early on, with all upgrades enables is near impossible, if it is possible at all.

I get the impression that those purchases mean nothing and it's only a timing thing, which makes sence if you can't actually buy new tires or change engines with those upgrades.

Seems that this game is less a sim and more game. I am no fan of cheating and certainly would never promote it but it seems something was just revieled about this game by doing it. I would prefer a truely honest game and if this game was, the car should have had nop problems going from 40th to 1st a lot better then before, not just a little better, dueto that random, unexpected burst, cating the driver off guard.
