Maybe I just haven't scanned the correct page in the manual, but why has the pitboard gone? I find having to use F1 and F2 to get that information back again to be a hassle. I like knowing my lap time/speed on passing the line compared to my best previous effort. Also, what am I doing wrong with the car setup screen. Whilst I can select default setups (Qualify and Ace usually), each time I go back into the setup screen they've both reverted back to Easy. What gives?

I could live without the pit board no problem. However, PAPY needs to fix the spotters reading of the lap speed to be clearer. I often cannot understand him. It sould read something like .... nine - two - five for a time of 49.247 for example. The 4 and the dot can be omitted - since they are implied. If I turn a lap at 50.21 he will read zero - two - one. It is abvious that I did not turn a lap at 40.21 - I would know that. This is often how the numbers are really read. This also needs to be a bit louder - since I have to turn the spotter volume up too loud to hear it. Allow spotter text and speech would also be helpful - then I could read the numbers too. /THansen

The pitboard was replaced with a combination of the F1 key (if you want to see it) and the spotter audio (press "o" to toggle on/off the spotter calling out your lap times). The pitboard itself is not used in real NASCAR racing unless there's a problem with the in-car radio.
