Does anyone know in what order does the pitcrew change your tires in
the pits.  Do they go in order from r1, r2 or what?
        Also, been using Paintshop Pro and in an hour I painted my first car
and***pit.  The new '98 BMW will introduce itself on the Formula One
circuit.  Only problem...... it kind of sucks.  Does anyone have a good
BMW bmp they painted and could send me and a***pit, low and hi res
with the propeller on the wheel?  Many thanx.

I don't hear any tires being changed on my car, but I do notice that
sometimes when I come into the pits there is a whole crew waiting for me
and at other times just the jackman.  Is there any significance to this?

I did take a gif image of the prop off a BMW page and attached it to my
***pit, it looks pretty good for a first shot.  Does anyone have any
BMW paintschemes in .bmp?  Not sure what one would look like, so I kind
of made up my own, but am looking for maybe something better.

I'm still to be convinced that the tires are being changed at pit
stops. I've done full races with a 2 pit stop strategy and have never
heard the tires being changed. The car still seems slippery to me when
I go back out on the track. Maybe it's just a mind thing since I cant
actualy hear the tire change. I can though, hear computer cars getting
there tires changed. So tell me, do you hear the tires being changed
when you pit?
