I added the patch from the pits that fix the care makes etc..and I do have the datona and indy tracks but I noticed in the cal file it has a ndatona (pepsi 400) race so I made the folder ndaytona and copied the contents from the daytona folder to the new one and when I go into the game it gives me an error "cant load tracks out of memory" any solutions to this problem ?. thanks in advance, mike gillie

I believe the problem is as follows: The track directory name.. ex: \sierra\nr1999\tracks\ndatona "ndatona" must match the xxxx.dat file in that directory. If your DAT file is different than the directory name then I believe you'll get the error message. Plus, the directory name & the DAT name must match in the CAL file also. Hope it helps. Andrew
message. This is correct. If you check that DAT file I believe you will see it is probably daton.dat (or ndayton.dat). So you can't rename the sub-directory for the track different then the dat file name or you will get this error message.

N99 will only accept 44 tracks, this may be your problem, try putting some in another directory.
