friend in a multiplayer race and need to vent a little frustration? Then it's
time for STUPID NASCAR TRICKS!!
Trick I.: Set the opponent strength to about 90%, and the number of
opponent cars to the maximum available (38 I believe?), and the pace
lap ON. Go to the Atlanta track, and skip qualifying (i.e., start
from the back). Start the race, and stay back from the *entire* pack
about 100 yards or so (i.e., no blocking of one column of cars
allowed, you must be behind _all_ of the other cars). Wait for the
green to come out, and then the kicker - pass the _entire_ field
before the completion of the first lap, without taking any cars out;
i.e., you must be in first place when the pit board showing completion
of the first lap appears on your screen, and the entire rest of the
field must still be intact and running. Further, no "restrictor plate
removal" / shortcut / whatever tricks are allowed - all passes must be
made legally, and upon the racing surface proper.
Once you've done it, start increasing the opponent strength... what's the
maximum strength you can set it at and still accomplish the above?
Me: 95% (though I haven't tried it yet at higher strengths - I'm quite sure
it can be done up to 97%, maybe even all the way to 100%).
p.s.: feel free to post your own Stupid NASCAR Tricks so I can be entertained
until the Track Pack arrives. Or tell me to get a life - either is fine. :-)
