Hi! Apologies if this has been covered in the past. I was wondering if anyone knows of a fix for the problem with the CC cars on the converted Indianapolis track, whereby they don't use the warm-up lane when they exit the pits. It's really annoying to be lining up an inside pass into turn one and have some 'joker' pull straight out onto the track at low speed right in front of you. I may be mistaken, but I don't believe this was a problem with the original version of Gerhard's track converter, and if I remember correctly, the cars do use the warm-up lane when the track is converted for NASCAR 1, so it seems a little strange that they don't in IndyCar 2, and it kind of spoils the experience of racing at Indy. Also, if anyone could let me know the URL of Gerhard's website, I'd be grateful. Thanks! Mark 'Damon' Gill "Only rock can save us now!" http://gillcomp.demon.co.uk/damon.htm O==-O\

There is a simple little fix. Copy the PIT.LP file from the converted N1 Indy to the ICR indy and they'll stop doing it. The PIT.LP file defines the line the AI take when making a pit stop. I did know it but lost my bookmarks file. To be honest I haven't heard from Gerhard in nearly 8 months so I don't know if it's still there. Cheers Jed The Pits - http://www.thepits.demon.co.uk

Hi Jed! Thanks for the info. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work. I tried it twice in case I got it wrong, but the Indycars still ignore the warm- up lane and go trundling out onto the racing line. I also tried copying all the NASCAR .lp files for Indy into the ICR2 Indy directory, but it still didn't work. I ran NASCAR again just to check that the cars did use the warm-up lane in that sim, and they do. It's a bit of a mystery why the Indycars don't. BTW, great to have you back at 'The Pits' these days!
