I'm not seeking an IndyCar Racing FAQ, but would like to see one created.
Here's what I think the first two questions should be:

Q: Why can't I get the modem support to work?
Q: Can I run IndyCar in 4MB RAM?

I have not been able to get the modem support to work, but apparently
some people have. As for the 4MB issue, I have no imput, I have 8MB at
home, but have seen lots of posts from people having trouble with 4MB.

Well here is a start to your answers. The game can be run with 4MB of
RAM with no problems if you get the 1.02 Patch file. I can run every
track with no problems :-). What the patch does is for machines
with out enough memory it will not load the track, grass and dirt's
texture into memory. As far as the modem goes I haven't heard of anyone
having it fully work with out crashing.

later,
Andrew

I have a Packard Bell 486 w/ 4 megs and I have no problems what so ever
running ICR. I run it at full detail and usually with 16 cars. Don't know
about anymore than that as I've never tried to race more than 16 cars as I
still can't race more than a couple of laps without hitting another racer.

Also, what are the best handling chassis? Are they about the same and
what about motors? And, are the default car setups good, (the ones where
you choose Ace,Expert,Novice or something like that.) or do you all set
up your own cars.

Thanks,
