NASCAR 2 TESTING IS UNDERWAY AT THE IVGA and We found the following
5 issues to be addressed!!!!
SUBJECT: ABUSING THE TIRES IN THE PITS!!!!!!!!!!
We here at the IVGA tested the Wheel Standing and Spinning Features
of the NASCAR 2 and found it provided the following results. By taking
the car and pointing it at the wall the following was achieved. The
use of these benefits are not clear!
1). BURN OFF SOME GAS BEFORE QUALIFYING!!!!!!!!!!!
You can burn off the gas at the rate of .1 tenth of gas
each 10 seconds provided you maintain a RPM of greater
than 2000. We used 5000 RPM as the best results. We
just used a book on the GAS pedal. You can actually
burn off a 21 gallons of gas in 35 minutes.
2). While in the BURN OFF GAS MODE.. TIRE WEAR DOESNT SEEM
to occur!! WEIRD there is SMOKE everywhere... Must be
SLEATH SMOKE!!!!
3). HEAT OIL and WATER TEMPERATURE RISES TO 300 Degrees. While
pointing at the wall the oil and water temperatures can
rise to 300 degrees. Now I have seen the NASCAR boys
tape off the front of thier cars to increase the heat.
I tested this method and was able to run 197.5 qualifier
at the Taladega in NASCAR 2. Without heated Oil and Water
I was only able to qual at 195.1's.
4). HEAT REAR TIRES!!!!!!!!!
We were able to heat the REAR Tires about 40 degrees by
point the car at the wall.
Solutions to above. At the IVGA in FASTLAP we used a timelimit
to prevent things like the above..
