In a previous post I mentioned the tow truck, pit crews that stopped sp you could beat the pace car but I forgot the best thing...SPOTTERS...If something happened on the track a message appears letting you know. It even lets you know how serious the problem is. 'Car Thwonked in turn four' ,'Car spinning in turn one' ,'Big trouble in the tri-oval'. It saved me from getting into several wrecks. Papyrus - please please please put out a patch with this stuff in it. By the way, passing two wide in the tri-oval doesn't work. Sorry to whoever I wrecked, got a little greedy.

First - If you are still having trouble finding Hawaii, I got mine from the Pits original site. Now...I logged in to the nascar network last night and I have one thing to say...ITS AWESOME...Tow trucks are here,pit crews that stop repairs so you can beat the pace car are here. You have to check this out. I only have a 14400 modem and everything was smooth. Great job Papyrus. I have only one question. Does anyone know if this will stay a long distance call or is Papyrus going to change the service to a subscription ? My long distance phone bill can't handle the amount of time I would like to stay on. Race on. John Parr PS - Papyrus...How about releasing a patch with the tow truck and smart pit crews for us when were not onlone.

can't get over agressive up on MP ... real people don't drive anywhere near the same as the AI ... after while running w/ the same guys tho, you'll pick up on the styles of different drivers and actually find running w/ real people much much better than the AI. while we're on the subject of user IDs ... :) It would really be appreciated by all of us if you guys would user you name in/as you ID ... it's pretty tough running w/ a guy called 'crashnburn' and not wondering if he's really gonna do that :) also I'd much rather address you by your real name in post/pre race chats than by a handle ... makes us all a bit more accountable and personable. thanks Jim Warren

Of course if you have to do this online it will be awhile, AT&T is going to love me this month. While I'm here, I would just like to say Congrats to the Papyrus guys. You have a great online race network setup and I look forward to it exiting beta testing and going to a pay service (or whatever is worked out). Also thanks for checking this Newsgroup and answering many of the post that were here. It's nice to see a company respond to the people who support it buy using their products and services. Keep up the good work. John Parr Race on and may your engine never fail.

All you need to do is delete the file userinfo.cfg and then resign up for the service, this time using your new ID. Here are some simple steps for those of you in the back of the room: 1. Make sure you are in your nascar directory (c:\nascar) 2. type: delete userinfo.cfg <enter> 3. type: eterm <enter> 4. Sign on again, just like you did the first time; Pick a new user ID. Mike

True, but when you do this your skill level is reset. To my knowledge, there is no way to change your UserName and keep you current skill level. -- Emory University Graduate School of Arts & Sciences Nascar Setups Page: http://userwww.service.emory.edu/~ebusch/ Hawaii Network UserName: Buschwick (4)

You are correct, Eric. Skill Levels are tied to User ID's; if you get a new User ID, you will start with a skill level of zero. Mike
