You can assign that to any key. It's on the list where you assign your
brake and gas pedals and such. Here is another hint. If you go online
with the default key assignments, Your chatting will be very difficult.
Everytime you type a letter that has an ingame command assigned to it, you
will get doublle or even tripppllle strikes. The way to get around this is
re-assign all the keyboard commmands to non alpha keys. So my pause key is
now the right ctrl key. My restart race key is the right alt key. My
replay key is on the numerical keypad the / key etc etc,
Ralph Humerich(sp?) is the current master up season updates. I don't
think he has released a 2003 carset yet, but he has dozens of updates for
the 2002 cars...tobacco etc. The Ferrari GA is out already. You can find
many F1 2k2 sites at...
