N3 Championship Question

Is it possible to start a championship season in N3 by picking a group of 43 drivers. Then after having run a race or two changing a few of the drivers in the same group. Will it keep track of the points for everyone or will the new drivers get the score of the drivers they replaced? I wanted to change my 43 drivers to match the ones that really qualified for each race this season but did not know if that would work. Thanks in Advance

I could be wrong, but I think it will screw things up if you change the list during the season... a friend tried it and I think he said the points were wrong or it kept the same drivers or something... it didn't work anyway... On Sun, 20 Feb 2000 17:26:11 -0800, "sloppy" <[email hidden]> wrote:

The points will be screwed up, I did it by mistake once and found a normal backmarker up at the top of the points table. Steve sloppy wrote in message <[email hidden]>... >Is it possible to start a championship season in N3 by picking a group of43

That's correct ! The best way to do a real season is to use NRHQ's database...( http://www.vii.com/~danej/ ) I've used it since N2, and now I can start dooing it N3, cause the "just released" 3.8 version now supports N3. This way you can create a season, and the database keeps track of all individuals results(i.e.: you can use Ron Fellows @ The Glen, and it won't screw up the points scoring, he will be added as another racer scoring points, just like the real WC series) You'll also be able to adjust the AI's performances easily to simulate each race's result by applying "SIF" files(performance "patches" applied to a "Driver.lst"...
