This sounds good. I'd like to know the leader's lap time as well as
mine. I don't care about "speeds" as much as "times" let's start
using seconds instead of mph!

Right now I think they are lined up in order of the carset. Sounds
like a big internal fix, but not a bad idea.

How about a crew chief that you communicate with? Tell him your
problem and let him help you out. Some race drivers, like Rusty
Wallace, are great chassis people. Some other drivers, however,
aren't. You ever notice a driver who doesn't do so hot, then he gets
with a certain team and does great? the crew chief and driver mesh,
for starters, and those setups make a HUGE difference! (hut stricklin
in the 26 car this year, for example. Bobby Hillin in the 77 car too)

I *know* C***te's pits aren't right. And there is no wall on the
other side of pit road either. That is sort of aggravating. Too bad
the "ovals" weren't there at C***te either - would be fun to just
"run 1/4 mile laps"

I dunno. In reality, the spotter is the main man. He blurts "green
flag green flag go! go! go!" at the start and restarts, and "caution!
spin in turn 3", etc...

How about more realisic damage. I know the sheet meatl damage is pretty
good, but how about some damage to the doors and chassie? And when you
blow a tire, be able to limp back, I've seen the indycars drive back with
one tire bent up parelell to the road. Here, the front tire damage is
pretty good, but how about the rear ones, I can barely top 5 mph with one
tire gone. Oh, and could you fix that car overlap problem I just saw
Ricky Rudd drive right through Darrel Waltrip.

The problem was the track modeling program didn't allow them to use the
right configuration. They can't let the pit road get more than a certain
distance from the main road. (At least that's what the Papyrus tech
folks tell me.) It's a shame, but, I'd much rather them fix the dogleg
at Talladega.

How about releasing track desiging software so we users could create the
tracks? It wouldn't be Papy supported, but at least we could race there!

How about the geting rid of a special key for reverse and having to
down-shit until you reach it (NFS)? It would be very helpful, especialy
for those of us who are still saving for a T1.

It's NOT going to happen. You're asking Papyrus to shoot themselves in
the foot. I'd love to see it happen too, but it won't.

I wish Papyrus would make some kind of track designer too. Something
like Microsoft Flight Simulator's one wouldn't hurt Papyrus too bad.
Something where you're really limited on buildings and stuff. With the
flight sim, I could have made my own scenery, but it wasn't nearly as
good as the one you buy off the shelf. Nowhere near it! Also, it took
so long, that I quit before I finished.

I'd certainly like to see that.

How about being able to bump cars without seeing a yellow flag? I mean
'rub' not crash. Define 'crash' as loosing an engine or a tire in order
to bring out a yellow, this way a spin doesn't necessarily bring out a
caution.

I agree with Mike, let there be spin outs but if no-one
except the car the spins is involved then there should
be no yellow flag!!

I've seen that happen before too..but when i check the replay...some other car (usually behind me) has
spun out and that brought out the caution...in all actuality..i've found that unless a car comes to a complete
stop the caution generally doesn't fly...i've bounced my car of another car and the the wall...spun it...then
kept going...didn't get a caution (granted my car was trashed but it stayed green)
