Just curious...
If someone tweaks the DRIVERS2.TXT file for a track like Talledega on their
machine will Hawaii use it or does Hawaii dynamically replace it with an
unmodified version when running a race?

The less obvious answer is what about your own entry in that file? I'm
sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong, but I didn't think that
the power, drag, aggression, and traction numbers for the human entry
had any effect on our performance.
Furthermore, in a modem race, the answering machine would be in charge
and that would seem to indicate that the servers on Hawaii are probably
in charge as well.

That seems to indicate that if you tweak the file locally on your system Hawaii
will pick it up and bounce you out. Good stuff!
