NASCAR 2 - Cool feature!

Am I the only one who didn't know, but just discovered, that when pushing the [o]-button when driving your spotter starts telling you your laptimes?! This is really cool, but probably old news that I somehow missed. Is it documented in the US-manual? My crappy UK-one only has 98 pages, so maybe they left it out... -- Formula T2 Upgrade Page - http://huizen.dds.nl/~jjcox

It is documented on the command summary card that ships with the game. God Bless, Steve

I think it's in the US manual. You might want to check out the NASCAR 2 FAQ, it includes a few other hidden features: http://www.sequoia-dev.com/Hawaii/Features/N2FAQ.txt Dave Sparks IWCCCARS Project: http://www.theuspits.com/iwcccars Late Night League: http://www.sequoia-dev.com/Hawaii/latenite.html Hawaii Handle: davids

It's documented on the reference card that shows all of the keyboard commands. Don't feel bad, I didn't realize you could use ctrl-r to restart a race without exiting out and restarting the race weekend. Apparently, it works with ICR2 also. Oh well, at least I know now....

Also, after 'F2' to see current standings, while on screen, press 'return' it gives real time position and times of your car relative to the field. It updates at the start/finish every lap, and if a lap down (I think) name is in RED. very cool

^^^^ 1990 means, something, but 1997, who cares?? Dave Henrie fan of the right turn series Not Today! ThankYOU Pepsi Club.

Not only by hitting the "O" key will the spotter give you lap times, BUT if you hit Alt + O he'll give it to you on Each and Every lap just after you've crossed the Start/Finish line each time! Then again, hitting the "L" or alternatively, Alt + L you'll be notified When the race Leader Crosses the Start/Finsih line! Ain't Technology Wonderbar? Dave, The Hammer

One I only found out by accident - press "shift" whilst F2 is on & it will show the other view for just as long as the key is pressed. Also provides the easiest way to get back to your own position if you've scrolled up or down the positions. Cheers, Richard

Sadly, the UK-version of NASCAR 2 doesn't ship with a reference card... But oh well, I can live without that! B.t.w. I don't feel bad, but thanks for caring anyway! :) -- Formula T2 Upgrade Page - http://huizen.dds.nl/~jjcox

PMFJI Joeri, I can scan in and e-mail you a copy of the reference card if you'd like. Let me know via e-mail. -- -Paul My "reply" address has been changed to defer spammers. > Sadly, the UK-version of NASCAR 2 doesn't ship with a reference card... > But oh well, I can live without that! > B.t.w.
