Perhaps I've missed previous discussions on this topic but could someone explain how to use the great cars PCX files I've seen. For example there was recently a CocaCola car and a new Pace Car both in PCX format. They look great but how do I add them to my field? Also I saw a message saying that NeoPaint was a good program for painting the cars. How is this done? I thought this was only possible with PaintKit. Anxiously awaiting your suggestions...

First of all go to the paintkit. Then select the car that you wish to replace with the new car you have. Select that car and push the export button. Now exit out of paintkit. This is all done most easily through Windows because you will have the Nascar directory right there when you exit paintkit. Anyway, after you have exited you will see a pcx file like nasc94.pcx or whatever the name of the one you exported happens to be. Now get the new car you want and rename it as the car that you exported like nasc94.pcx. It will now replace the car you exported in the Nascar directory. Now go back into the paintkit and select the same car again and this time you select import and bango there is your new car. I know it sounds difficult but once you get the hang of it its no problem. It's basically export, replace, import. Hope this helps, if not tell me and I or someone else can try and explain it better. Kel
