N2: Lap times from spotter

I was testing some car setups at Atlanta last night and I was trying to drive
and hit the F1 key to get lap times while coming out of turn 4.  I fat fingered
the keys and somehow got in a mode where the lap times where spoken to me by the
spotter.  After stopping and adjusting my setup it wouldn't do it anymore and I
don't kmow what I did to get into this mode.  I couldn't find it in the manual.

How can do this again??  I like it!

I think it's the O key; the L key tells you when the leader is at
S/F. (Isn't this in the docs somewhere?)

did he tell you lap times in MPH? theat would be cool.
if he told you in seconds then you hit the "o" key to turn it on or off.

You can hit "ALT" and "I" and you should hear the spotter telling you the
lap times.

Press O for lap times press L for when the leader passes the start finish

they tell the lap times in seconds like real spotters do. Racers ussally
talk in times rather than MPH.
