This is just a quick little nothing question.. I was racing my IndyCar
at Phoenix last night and was pushed into the turn 2 wall by someone...
There's no bug to report or anything, but I noticed something...
I've seen people talking about the generic "65" Unocal ball at the tracks..
I just figured that Unocal didn't want the 76 ball being used.. But at
Phoenix in turn 3, there's a Unocal banner on the wall and it has the 76
ball, not 65... I was wondering if they said you could use it on the wall
but not the sign, and why...

number of the tracks in "The Patch". :-) It was a timing issue on the
original DOS version; we got the license too late to put it everywhere it
had to go.
