I might have found a way to make your pit the first (front) pne on pit road!
I was messing around with the IndyCar michigan.txt file last night and I
made mine the first stall onstead of the last, but we were on the track
instead of in the pits.. pitting on the track isn't fun... all you have to
do is mess with any tracks .txt file, the line that says PIT or PITS, mess
around with those numbers.. if we all work together, maybe we can do it
right someday... it's a good start!

5/6/96

1. MAKE A BACKUP OF THE .TXT FILE!!!!
2. then change all the numbers on the PIT line to 1's...
3. change a group of numbers on the line to something.. (ie, 385463)
4. load up indycar or nascar racing, go to the track and see where your
   are
5. exit, change a few numbers again...
6. enter game, see where pits are...
7. REPEAT STEPS 5 AND 6 alot!!!

ok, start the log now....

OK, some people found out how to supposedly change the pit stalls by
changing a line in the txt file of the track. My question is to the
guys at Papyrus...Can you give us a clue to figure these numbers out ?
It would be great if we could qualify, save the race, change the number
to reflect how we qualify the reload the race and race with the right
stall. If you guys at Papyrus can clue us in on the numbers please do,
It would help the game alot.

Thanks
