^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
It's not a bug, that's the way it's setup--correctly I might add. NASCAR
allows 2-lap qualifying at Talladega and Daytona in order to get the
restrictor plate engines up to speed.
The short tracks should also have 2-lap qualifying, something I sincerely hope
Papyrus fixes in NASCAR 2 (I know it's easy to change, but it would be
nice if it came that way from Papyrus). NASCAR uses 2-laps at short
tracks because the tires don't get warm enough to make a really good, fast
lap after only one warmup lap. The drivers essentially use the first lap
as a warmup lap, then go for it on the second lap.
NASCAR will also allow 2-lap qualifying at other tracks if the weather is
extremely cold (they did this at Atlanta this year).

Woah, tooken???
my speeds at Talledega have gone from 193-194 for
Yea, I used to get times like that using my keyboard back before I got the
track pack. Talledega gets slowed down or something with the 1.2 patch.

Be sure you are using ver 1.21 of NASCAR.EXE. When you reinstalled, it
wrote the original version to the HDD.

I didn't reload the 1.21 patch. That was the problem. All
is well now.
