For those of you running the Brickyard in NASCAR, you've probably noticed
excessive tire temps, especially on the right side.

Here's the fix: Open the INDY.TXT file, and the POCONO.TXT file. Change
the TEMP and TEMP2 settings in the INDY.TXT file to match those in the
POCONO.TXT file. You might have to add the TEMP2 setting.

Also, as someone has already mention, the LAPS setting needs to be changed
to 160. Also, change the QUAL setting from 2 2, to 2 1 (qualifying at the
Brickyard is only one lap). I also deleted the GEARS setting, since
NASCAR doesn't use it.

Good points Pat. Shouldn't you also change the line 'CARS 32 32' to 'CARS
40 40' to allow a maximum of 40 cars on the track. Is there enough room in
the pits to make this change?

I don't think you can change it to 40 because the sim doesn't contain
40 cars!

Anways, for those who have had problems, I've just be send Gerhards
final converters for the track by John Wallace.

These finally sort the AI and tyre overheating problems.

I'll try and get them uploaded over the weekend.

Uh, what version of Nascar are you running? In my version there are: my
car, one pace car, and 38 opponents. Last time I checked that was 40
cars.

It can be done to get the full 39-car Papyrus NASCAR field, but you'll just
have to reverse slightly at the start of practice to avoid rear-ending the
guy ahead of you.

I thought that there was only 38 opponents in Nascar? Well, thats all
my 'opponents' value goes up to on the menu..

There are only 38 opponents, but there are 40 total cars that can be on
the track. You have to remember to include yourself and the pacecar.

Whoops...I meant 39 including yourself.

Now, if anyone can figure out how to hack the game so that the field can be
expanded to the proper 42 (or 33 in the case of ICR2), I'd certainly like to
know about it!

In Nascar Racing,
I changed the cars line to 40 and it works just fine, 38 opps, your car
and the pace car.
There is a ton of room in the pits.
In Indycar II,
Does anyone know how cool the right front tire?
