Qualified 16th and finished 1st in my second race at Chicagoland Speedway, but 1.5 mile tracks are my bread and butter.

I wouldn't even know where to begin and I would always be wondering if I'm doing more harm than good. Then I'd be thinking the cars handle better with previous changes.

In Grand Prix Legends I was really buried in setups for awhile and was getting these slow incremental improvements and I just kinda got burned out on tuning the cars.  Went in a couple days later and just ran the default setup and I was a second faster than my fastest time with custom setup, and about 2 seconds faster than I was previously with default.  I'm not sure, but the only thing I think I improved was my driving ability.  After that I stopped tweaking the setups.

Just running defaults. I've thought about messing with my setup to help with qualifying since I'm running clean laps, but I feel the other cars are just faster.

I'm also doing 4x gas/tire wear. It gives me two pit stops per race. I don't have yellows enabled for single car crashes, only if multiple cars are involved, but I may change that since I'm not getting any yellows. I also wish there were either 15% or 18% races. 13% feels too short, but 20% is too long timewise.

I completely forgot about FC26. I'm enjoying that too just like I enjoyed FC24. Is it perfect? Of course not, no game is, but I can still have fun with it.

You're right about older games...nostalgia can taint memories. College/NCAA Football is another. People complained about 14, but now it's the perfect football game.

Thanks pal.  I feel better that it's not just me being old and grumpy.  And I had to tone it down to gamers just suck for the post. 

You mention Nascar25 and how they compare it to 2003 and that reminds me of my recent enjoyment of FC26.  I cannot believe the hate that FIFA/FC games get, but what really kills me is the comparisons to FIFAs from 10 to 20 years before and how those were the best FIFAs, yada yada yada.  But what I remember every year is the same complaints.  It wasn't loved 10 years ago when it was the new title.  Same for Football Manager series.  26 is hated.  24 is loved, now.  And FM10 is the holy grail?  And if I remember correctly Nascar 2003 wasn't exactly loved when it was released either.

Wow, finished 4th on 100 seems pretty impressive.  Are you tuning setups at all or just running default?
