In a heads up race they dont..but when estimating a cars performance in a different location they apply the known DA formulas to adjust the cars tuning for that venue.

Lets say they're racing in Colorado, and they are then going to be racing at Englishtown, NJ. They can apply their numbers in Colorado to a converter and estimate what they will run in New Jersey, and tune accordingly.
