Hi,

What's the purpose of the number at the end of each line?

Example:
SNAME All_Tracks
 1  1 18 0 0 TALADEGA Alabama_500 Alabama_500 188 event1.tga
event1.tga 500
 2  2 29 0 0 ATLANTA Atlanta_500 Atlanta_500 328 event1.tga event1.tga
500
 3  3  1 0 0 BOWMAN Bowman_Gray_250 Bowman_Gray_250 250 event1.tga
event1.tga 63

thanks

Colin Harri

Those signify the length of the race, which is needed for points scoring
purposes (that's how they did it back then, hence Dega got 3pts per
position, Bristol only 1...)
