I don't think it understeers. All race-cars handle like that. If you give gas too early out of a corner, you're in a spin. If you break too hard while turning, you're in a spin. That doesn't change, and I believe your attempt to avoid this have made you raise your wings way too much. The downforce is therefore way too great on the straights. As for CHEATING!!!!!!!!! : Go to the dir called cars and then into the cars93 (or whatever car set you're using). Edit the DRIVERS.TXT. Here, among other stuff, is a list of all the drivers and their data. You're on top, and the two numbers (somewhere around 900-950) before your name if your car's horsepowers. Change them at will. I once tried to change a droid's HPs to 1500. WHOOOSH, and he was gone! Rather funny to look at, I tell ya. :) Patches and stuff are at : ftp://didnt.doit.wisc.edu/PublicFiles/Racing/ICR/ Hope this helps, mate. -- Best regards, _/_/_/ _/_/_/ Christian Jahnsen, _/ _/ Technical University of Denmark, _/ _/ Lyngby, Denmark. _/ _/ _/ WWW-Homepage : [link lost in import: /~gc937079/]
