aahh...Papy must have started implementing that in N2. The original Nascar allowed you alter your fuel amounts before the start of a race. Then again, we are talking 1994-95 season. RacerHead wrote in message ...

The reason is Nascar rules demand a minimun weight at the start of a race. So the weight of the fuel in the full tank is required to meet this weight limit. Now in Nr2k3 and indeed, in probably all of the Papyrus sims, you can run a single car test session offline and there you can adjust your fuel amounts to your heart's content. But during a race or practice sessions for a race, you are always sent out with a full tank--both offline and online. dave henrie
