No dude he's one of their mechanics.
He sets up the suspension and handling on both cars. He knows his stuff when it comes to handling and tire pressure.<ul><li><a href="http://www.champion-motors.com/racing/ateamdetail.cfm?c=e&f=49">http://www.champion-motors.com/racing/ateamdetail.cfm?c=e&f=49</a</li></ul>

Well, if I were you, I'd...
move the rear bar to hard. I was using the 22mm bar(on soft) and AVS Sports(same size as you) at 39F/42R cold at Watkins Glen. Excellent balance...not much oversteer at all...I never had to "catch" the car, like you do on Gran Turismo with all the oversteer. They gain pressure as they heat up. I think I was around 45-47 when they were just off the track. But I'm a novice, so what do I know.

The Champion Team is very hush hush...I would be surprised if they told you the truth
My friend works on the team...they are very closed mouth about car set-ups...remember...this is competition...and they are serious about it.

Even if they didn't, Galati's car weighs at least 500 lbs. less than a standard S4...
...less weight = less tire pressure needed; his suspension is also at least twice, if not thrice, as stiff as a standard S4's.
