Hi All,
    Is there a way in N3 to adjust the AI at specific tracks to make the
opponents alittle slower?  I am running at 98% and am doing ok at most
tracks but am getting left in the dust at Talladega and Daytona!  I've
adjusted and adjusted, got some setups off the web and I'm still getting
killed!  I tried increasing my own strength (power, traction, etc.) to no
avail.  Thanking you in advance, any tips?

Dega is the Last place you should be getting left behind.  that is the one
track that you should be able to put the AI at 105+% and still be able to
kick their butt.

First, make sure your wheel is calibrated.  I have heard of guys that were
slow because the wheel was not calibrated.  So when they were pushing down
the gas all the way, the game did not think it was full gas.  You would
notice this at Dega more than any other track.

Second, start off with the Ace setup, push the Tape up to 60-70% and just
that right there should make you competitive.  At least to the point that
you should be able to beat the AI at Dega with them at 102+%

Try those things and let me know how it goes.

You can adjust the *.txt track file (taladega.txt for example) by
changing the RELS line. Decreasing this number makes the ai go slower,
increasing it, the opposite. You can adjust qual speed by changing the
BLAP number. Try changing the numbers after the "." ("30345" changed to
30355). Make small changes at first. That number represent the number of
second takent to complete a lap (30.345 for example). When I compete in
a season, I set the AI to 100% but adjust the individual tracks to a
confortable level (that darn Dover track!).

open up the text file in the track folder:
file:///c:\papyrus\nascar3\tracks\taladega\taladega.txt
edit the RELS line, just drop a couple off it, if it's on 112, drop to 110
for example.

do the same for daytona or any other track u got probs with, remember to
backup files first, good luck
