Does anyone know what I should have the main level and the sub level set at on the co-pilot? Also should I consider different settings for a tight track or a loose track or does the same thing pretty much work on both? Also anyone have any tips on lauching... should I use my brakes to build any boost or what? Also anyone know the ATPA specs on the front weight bar?
Thanks

As per ATS when I asked a couple of weeks ago. Main level should be almost all the way to the right. Just back it off one push of the button to the left. Should have the last 2 lights illuminated. Sub Level all the way to the left.
Happy pulling! http://www.dieselplace.com/forum/smileys/smiley2.gif

Most all rules say the weight can not extend more than 60'' from the center line of the front axle. Don't know for sure on ATPA.

I think it has something to do with the platform on most scales not being long enough

Well once again my plans for the weekend were screwed, I was finishing up building my weight bar, and i got to the pull like 10 min to late and they wouldnt let me enter. Just my luck. Hey Mike how was that track, everyone said it was sticky as sh*t. Prob a good thing I didn't pull by the looks of the track. I haven't gotten my trac bars yet. Looked like a setup for disaster there for me
