In the \sierra\gpl\tracks\<trackname> directory edit the file called track.ini. Look for the line that says dlong_speed_adj_coeff = and put in a number like .960000. This is like the RELS param in Nascar2 where it's a percentage of AI strength. 1.0 being 100% and .96 being 96%. Just keep bumping up the number until you racing at full speed. It makes it a lot more fun till you get better and you get to see what the AI cars are doing. I learned that you don't have to mash the gas so hard and smooth acceleration out of the corners makes you go much faster. I finally got a lap time of 1:55 at Mexico because I wasn't trying so hard to keep up with the AI cars. I think I'm almost ready to bump the numbers back up to their default.
