Does anyone know if the tri-oval will be fixed in Nascar2?

You should be able to run 3 or 4 wide.

Talladega IS being redone, as Mike Carver said, but where do you get
the idea we should be able to run 3 or 4 wide there? They can't even
do that at the REAL track!

Taladega is being re-done. They hope to be able to provide real racing
on this track.

Look closely. He said the TRI-OVAL. Not the whole track. I failed
to mention the word tri-oval in my response. Sorry for the confusion.

Well, I would agree that 4 wide is suicide. But, I have seen the real
boyz doing it 3 wide. As an aside, who's spotter last weekend said
something on the line, "High, Low, You have your sandwich!"?

Hey, I've seen a technique in GP racing (real) whereby you can in fact
fit 3 *or* 4 cars through a turn like the tri-oval.
It's called Le' Machine :)
Just let her whirl and count the pieces as they fly out of the dust
cloud.

Have you watched a race at Taladega? You should. It's fun watching them
RUN THREE WIDE IN THE TRI-OVAL.

I rarely see 3-wide racing in the tri-oval at Talladega, without
having a near crash coming out it. The original poster mentioned
three or FOUR wide. Four wide is definitely not possible. But since
I failed to mention tri-oval, I guess I'll apologize for failing to
mention I was opposed to the suggestion of 4-wide being possible, not
3-wide. I do think that 3-wide in the tri-oval is much more hairy
than other parts of the track, and therefore not done if can be
avoided.

Remember 2yrs ago.....
Three wide ALL THE WAY AROUND THE TRACK!!!
Benny said "Looks like the start of the Indianpolis 500"
Bob Jenkins said something like "We're just gonna be quiet and watch"

I agree that the Tri-oval in Talladega NEEDS to be fixed. I'm always sick and tired
of grazing the wall at 195+ MPH. In REAL NASCAR, you'll be seing them go this speed
and not even touch the wall.

YES, if you watch some fraggin' NASCAR races at 'Dega, you'll see 3-a-***
racing in the TRIOVAL, and sometimes, 4-a-***!! Just watch the race, and you'll
see what I mean.

Hopefully NASCAR 2 will make the Tri-oval like the real 'Dega Trioval, which being nice
and easy to get accross.
