That should be all of the settings and adjusting needed.

Enjoy, go to single race, pick a track, I would start with Talladega, put you 15 to 20 cars out there.

Before you get on the track you have to go to the "garage" and set the car up for the track your running, On Multiplayer races, I set up the cars all the same, nothing you can adjust.

You can download the car setups here for each Track you want to practice Offline.
