How do I get to the main menu? I want to setup my steering wheel but
can't find the controller menu in the demo.

        After, observing the contest that was posted for 6 cylinders on Kip
Kowalski's
Bleach Box site, thought I would play around with some 6 cylinders! I'm
using a
260 cubic inch V6 making 1064 HP. The times might not be realistic but man
does
this sucker ever haul for a small motor! Had to totally redo car from my
4.45 V8 car!
        By, the way congrats to Vicious for a great time!

Great run Pete!!  If you really want to see what we had to go through to
get a good time, though, try these rules we had to follow:

1)Stock 6cyl block  (no boring or stroking)
2)No rail or F/C body
3)Moroso Park Raceway, with the Excellent weather setting.

And absolutely, congrats to Vicious.  He killed us.  With these
conditions, it took a bit of work to break the 7.40 mark.

BTW, did you hear the good news about the SHRA?  Seems Hot Rod magazine
will be giving us coverage each month. Race results & standings, as I
understand it.  This things gonna get big!

        Actually, the only thing I changed if I recall was to add the wind. I
tried
his exact setup and went a few hundredths faster and then used my own
setup and went a lot faster. I was using the nova with a stock block.
