N2: Difference between car makes??

by Nate Blevin » Thu, 24 Jul 1997 04:00:00

Hey, all

What (if any) is the difference between having a Chevy, Ford, or Pontiac
in this game?? So far, I've had a Chevy and a Ford, and haven't noticed
much difference...Also, what's the best way to not get cut off when
taking the low line going into a turn? So far, every track I've raced on,
I've been clipped going through a turn in which I had the line. It's not
a question of who's driving the AI car, either, as I've been clipped by
Mark Martin, Jeremy Mayfield, Ted Musgrave, Dale Earnheart, etc.,
etc...Is there any way to combat this??

Thanks,
Nate

Yes, there is a differance in makes.  I haven't tried it, but if you throw
a setup under a Pontiac, it won't act the same with a Chevy, or a Ford.
When going to pass a AI car, you gotta have your nose up to at least the
driver's door on it.  Or you could try the outside.  =)  If you got just
the quarter panel your up to, expect to go around.

In N1 car makes did matter. . .

Chevy: Great for superspeedways, okay on short tracks
Ford: Great for short track, okay on superspeedways
Pontiac: Good for everything

As to the other problem, that's the computer AI for ya.  Unless someone
makes an AI patch for every track you're stuck with it.
