I have seen online racers with cars #24 and #88, for example. How do you do this?

Goto Driver Info and select the multi list. Remove a car from your multi list and add the car you want. Then when you get to the first Multiplayer screen, on the middle right is name and car. The car you added to the multi list should now be available. JTRIV > I have seen online racers with cars #24 and #88, for example. > How do you do this?
Well, you could do it this way but then you will see other people driving that same car on your system when in fact they are in a different car on their system. What you do is to enter the name of the car you wish to drive in the space above the selection arrow. Put your cursor in that space and backspace over the entry already there. Then type in the car file name that you wish to drive. The format for the car files already included are c99_## and g99_## (c for WC and g for BGN) where the ## is the number of the car you wish to drive (c99_24 would be Gordon's car.) If you actually place that car into your multi list you will see other people driving that car even though they never selected it. Based upon the position in your multi list will determine who else would get that car. This can lead to confusion when they are in the #24 car on your system and in the #143 car on everyone else's system. So, just enter the name of the car file that you wish to drive but DO NOT put it into your multi list. Mike Mabrey

In the initial Multiplayer screen there is an option to choose your car file. Looks like only the "F" cars show up in the dropdown menu but you can manually type in whatever car is in the cars directory. Winston Cup cars are "C" and Busch cars are "G" where c99_24 would be the #24 WC car and g99_17 would be the Busch #17 (previous to it's excursion to the wall Saturday!)

>I have seen online racers with cars #24 and #88, for example. >How do you do this? The way that I do it is to 1st import the car that I want to drive into my players profile. The online multi carset is what Nas3 defaults to. Then pick t_pla car and your set. If you want to drive a different car online,1st you have to add it to the multi carset. This carset already has 43 cars in it,so you will have to remove one car 1st. Then just pick that car. Joel Willstein
As posted earlier, DO NOT place the car you wish to drive into the multi list unless you want to see other people also driving that same car.

Ahh.... I've been wondering about that, thought it was just another glitch in the game. Thanks Mike... JTRIV
