FIX FOR THEM MIRRORS

Joel Putty and Josh Carr pointed out to me that there are 3
little lines at the bottom of your NWengland.txt file in NASCAR 2.

These lines are REMed out.  He used this 3 lines and it seems to fix the
mirror problem...  Check out moving these lines to other
track.txt files and it might fix the mirror problem..

The lines start with REM and than MIRROR.  I guess thats how they
figured out it would fix the mirror problem.

I would like to thank Joel and Josh for thier contribution.

I cant believe that PAPYRUS would not have put these mirror
lines in all the tracks, so proceed with caution...

Be thankful that the lines are operational.  As for not being in the other
files, just cut and paste - no big deal.  :)

Altering these lines are not for the squeemish, as they are a bit screwy.
I've managed to get them to look better (IMO), and I'll be posting a
couple
new txt files in the next few days.

Merry Christmas.

I performed the procedure on all my track.txt files and have run several
tracks thus far will the mirror working GREAT!!  It does seem to be a
slight frame rate hit, but it sure is nice to be able to see around the
car!

I don't know if this pertains to the mirror fix (I changed all track.txt files
to include the required lines) , but I ran c***te last night and it was a
night race.  The cars coming up behind me would only show up below the horizon
line in the mirror, and only the portion of the car that was below the line.
