When watching ICR on tv, I usually hear the annoucers yap all the time about draft. What exactly is it.. is it implemented in ICR2 sim? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Support Chips.. nothing runs without us ----------------------------------------------------------------------

Selom: Yes it is implemented on the Indycar2 simulation. To experience it, go to Michigan Speedway and run the computer cars at a setting close enough to 100% that you run competitively yet still have a challenge passing cars. Run behind someone and "draft" in their slipstream. When you start getting closer to the car in front of you, you begin to accelerate toward him. You can often run as much as an extra 5mpg down the back straightaway by drafting. This is very useful for passing and absolubtly necessary to pass w/ computer cars at 100%. Happy Racing!!

Make that an extra 5mph. I haven't seen anybody get an extra 5 miles per gallon by drafting.:) -- Brian Fox The Fox Den: Nascar 1 and 2, ICR2, GP2 [link lost in import] [link lost in import] Stress - That confusion created when one's mind overrides the bodies basic desire to ***the living s**t out of some a**hole who desperately needs it.

If you know the very basic in aerodynamics then its easy:) A car behind another car has got less wind resistance because the front car is sheltering the car behind, thus making it easier for the engine to push the car and making it go faster, easier passing:) Julian
