My best NCR2 Talladega qualifying lap time is 49.397 and the only way to get that is if I run a dangerously high line on the first green lap and a low line on the white flag lap. The low line is pretty loose, but if I tighten it up anymore, I won't be able to stay high on lap 1. This is at 70 degrees. David Martin

>>> My best NCR2 Talladega qualifying lap time is 49.397 >> I've managed a 49.119 >My Best Taladega Speed for a single lap so far is 195.106 Ed. Note: 195.106mph is 49.081 seconds. I've run a 48.858 which is 195.997mph. I stay in the middle of the corner and exit early, trying to get the steering wheel straight as soon as possible. When you come down off of that banking it really throws you to the outside so you have to be ready for it. There's gotta be somebody faster than me out there. Let the one-upmanship begin! BTW, no fair jacking the weather to unrealistic values: 70 degrees and no wind equals a level playing field. I was kind of disappointed that they didn't change the RPM that an engine turns at Talladega. The restrictor plate engines can't breathe at 9000 RPM, so they make their best horsepower at about 7500. The simulation doesn't take that into account so the best way to make the car go is still to wind up the engine and that's not realistic. Maybe it was too hard to change this for just one track. \\|// Wallace J.

i think the way they setup seting up the car in nascar2 will even it out btween the rookie and the awsome drivers. cus now the best driver will win Dega in the multi. not the best setup.

I have made some good setups for Nascar1 and multi.exe and I feel the same as Joel here. Full tank, reduced setup options and one-lap qualifying will even out the setups considerably. A different matter is if everyone likes this state of affairs. Pekka Heino _____________
