I've seen some posts concerning qualifying speeds, etc where it's been
noticed that the game doesn't give the same speeds as we're used to.
Here are the BLAPS and REL settings I'm using in the text files for
each track. I made them in the following fashion:
1) went back over 2 years of qualifying
2) made some adjustments for weather (where I knew it), cars (Monte
Carlo's in particular, well, actually Jeff Gordon), and resurfacing.
3) ran them in the game over and over under a variety of weather
conditions, to get them so 1 or 2 cars would break the track record or
an "adjusted" track record (particularly for Darlington, which was just
recently resurfaced).
These numbers, against a 100% field, using the IWWC BGN and WCS sets,
gives pretty close numbers to the current pole positions, with some
suprises from time to time.
NOTE I'M NOT USING THE STOCK PAPYRUS SETS.
NOTE: I AM NOT SUGGESTING YOU ALTER YOUR GAME TEXT FILES NOR AM I
SUGGESTING THAT YOU WILL GET THE SAME RESULTS I HAVE.(disclaimer for
those that can't change their BLAPS and REL's easily)
I've included BGN setting for Martinsville for those who are running 94
seasons..the "holes" in the BGN schedule are there as they don't run
there.
Comments are of course welcome >:>
