ok NOW your post comes up.
1) are you making sure on the race screen(before you get to the track) you
are choosing the Truck season calendar?
2) The truck physics are likely slower due to increased drag. So your ARE
likely to be able to drive all the way around.
3) have you patched BOTH N3 and CTS with the official Papy patches??
4) have fun!

You should have a cts.cal in addition to the all.cal file. And ...they
basically recomended re-installing.
At thenorwaypits.com they have a utility that will back up all your setups
for N3 and CTS and NL. Use that and then re-install, and patch both sims.
Good luck

For some reason, it just wouln't work on the "typical" installation. Thanks
for all you advise and suggestions. Now if I can just stay off the walls, I
should be OK.
