NASCAR 2 Championship season probs

3 posts by 3 people · 01 Jan 1997 - 02 Jan 1997

Maybe I'm missing something, but I'm not sure. I start a Championship season and race in arcade mode. When I get to the screen that shows the rear of my car, the only option I have is Race. I can't qualify or anything. I changed it from arcade to simulation and still was only able to race from the back of the pack. I raced the first race and won it, but when I pressed ESC and it showed my victory lane shot, that was it. I had no option to accelerate time to let the others finish. I pitted and waited for them, but all cars stopped. Pressed ESC again, and got the victory lane pic again. I can't do anyhting except Leave Track, which loses the race stats! What am I doing wrong? Thanks

What I suspect is happening is that you are continuing the existing (arcade mode) season, and the fact that the season is in arcade mode is overriding the mode you are selecting (I've not actually run a season in N2, so I could be blowing smoke...) If you see the victory lane shot, you shouldn't need to accelerate time any further. When you leave track, it should save the race stats to the season file. Unfortunately, I can't help you with what you might be doing wrong, as I haven't played with that part of the game. (Multiplayer is too much fun for me...) ---Jim Sokoloff, Papyrus (a little out of my league here, but trying my level best to help out.)

I'm going to be as nice as possible in responding to this one. READ THE MANUAL! If people would just READ the manuals for various games, these questions would never come up. In arcade mode, you AUTOMATICALLY start at the back of the pack, just as the MANUAL states. As for the rest, check the manual <g>. Kirn Cromur
