Adding new manufacturers/engines to ICR2/NASCAR?

Has ANYONE yet figured out a way to add new manufacturers, engines, and
tire companies to the default ones given in ICR2/NASCAR?  I want to be
able to include Buicks, Oldsmobiles, Menards, Toyotas, Eagles, etc., and
to be able to properly document cars in BTCC sets and the like, even if
it's in name only on the screen without settings adjustments.

Thanks,
Earl

Hi Earl,

Ready to design 1996 IndyCar set? What about car set for Indy Racing
League and Indy Light?

Hey Earl Ma !
You burnt THAT into my screen  :

Change the number in the in NUMCH and NUMT (or somethin like that)
to how much you want and then enter 'em in the line under it .
All this will you have to do in the drivers2.txt .

Yes! I want to do this too, but I don't know how. I saw car sets for ICR1
that included extra engines and chassis though - take a look at the ICR1
Formula 1 car set at The Pits.

Two problems with this:
a)  You're only allowed to have 3 types of chassis & 2 types of tyres. At
    least, that's what it says in drivers.txt

b)  Something I've only just discovered - in my version (1.21), as soon  
    as you leave the Driver Info screen, the game saves the set with the
    original chassis & tyre names. Bug fix needed, methinks.
