Hi all! I dl'd multicar.zip today - took less than 6 min. at 19,200bps. Still, if you
want to save your money for more important things (like racing!), I've put the file up
on my web page until it becomes more widely available. Hawaii.exe is there to (see sig
below).

I'm sure that Rick and the boys will tell me if this is a "no-no", but at least I didn't
post it here, right?

Happy racin'

Thank you very much.
I just downloaded it in just a few seconds!
I tried to download it yesterday at about 6:00 pm. I started the
download several times and they were very slow, and they all aborted
automatically with only a partial file downloaded. Just curious, was
the performance problem yesterday "just one of them internet things"
or were you getting alot of traffic downloading this file?

Since the cars in the multicar.zip are "generic" cars, it seems like
IWCCCARS or someone else would make a car set with the same number
assignment as in multicar.zip, but with the busch or winston cup
paintjobs. As long as the order of the painted numbers is the same as
the order in drivers.txt, then everything should work out. Right?
Now, what numbers are used in the drivers.txt inside multicar.zip and
is there a good matchup with the real NASCAR? Oops... Bill Elliot
fans will be happy... but not a very good overlap. Was this
intentional?

Why does multicar.zip have drivers.txt and not drivers2.txt?

Alright, what about a PCX of a black goodwrench chevrolet with the
number "13"?
