N4: How to get low car numbers in multiplayer

Okay, what's the catch?  How are people driving online with the low numbered
cars?  I've see in the player.ini file where it lists both single race and
multiplayer cars but it won't save a low numbered car for multiplayer.
There must be something else they are doing.  Anybody know how its done?

They are using their own cars... If you create a car you can just then type
in the name of it (where you normally do the drop down box) and it will use
it.

If you have the other persons car, you will actually see it.  However in
your case (I am assuming you do not have their cars), you will see one of
the built in cars with their number on it.

No, Cliff, they are using the Tide car or UPS cars, etc.  In order for me to
see a custom made car that file has to be on my hard drive, right?

What I mean is how are people choosing Jeff Gordon's #24 or Jarrett's #88
car in multiplaying mode?  I've seen people use this cars online.

Hi Thom J.
As it looks as if you've got some answers to this question would you
be so kind as to send the solution to me too by mail.
I've allways wanted to race the #6 car on-line as Mark Martin is my
all time Nascar favourite.
Thanks in advance

Eckblad

Sure, It isnt in proper form as I havent done it in awhile. So

forward it right now.. -Thom_j.

lol.. I never thought this was so popular? hahaha I use #6
too but I use it as a joke since I'm "ViagraDude"..hahaha
As stated in my other re-posts, if it is unclear, I'll re-do it.
Soon I guess I better just post it here..eh?? :) -Thom_j.

No "secrecy" Cliff.. Right now I am just too 'lazy' to put it in a good
order that will be readable for all. I'll try tomorrow. All I did to those
who requested was send them 2 emails I had from when N4 started..
Sorry bout dat!! :)
