I have heard that it is possible to change the number of qualifying laps for
each track in NASCAR RACING. Does anyone exactly know, how ?
Thanx in advance

To change the number of qualifying laps for a given track, do the following:

1.  Go into the the subdirectory for the track you want to change.  For
example, to change Atlanta, " cd nascar/tracks/atlanta".

2.  Using the DOS text editor, edit the file "Atlanta.txt".  There is a line in
this file that starts with "QUAL" followed by two numbers.  I can't remember
what the first number means, but the second number determines the number of
qualifying laps.  In the Atlanta file, I believe the number that is in there is
"1", so to have a two lap qualifying run, change this number to "2", save the
file, and exit.

3.  You will have to repeat this for each track to wish to change.  I think
that Talladega is the only track that comes pre-set for a two lap qualifying
run.

This should do it for you.
