Over 200 can easily be achieved if you remove the restictor plate for the car. This is done in the track file. You change the code from a 1 to a 0 and have som unrestricted fun. Opinions expressed herein are my own and may not represent those of my employer.

: no, its been known for 4 years now, ever since Nascar Racing (1) came : out. Its the exact same mod. : what i'd like to know is if there is a way to make the tires last longer : somewhere in the code. -- Troy A.

Non-restrictor plate racing is much more fun than with the damned things. BTW the fastest line I have found is to lift off the gas, dive down to the bottom, apply throttle again, drift back up going into 2/4, and then dive down again and pick up speed coming into the straights. I saw Richard Petty driving this exact same line c. '82 in a highlight show last fall... If I run with low fuel during a test session I can get it over 210 (has anyone broken Elliot's qualifying record of 212?). John DiFool
