I'm completely new to online nascar.. why does the host have my car number when sending messages to the racers? I have my personal car but so does the host!?! Ironically I find that my best pings are all on the passworded servers, probably a coincedence. Is there a site somewhere that is a repository for personal cars of online racers, or is this usually a league thing? How does one go about joining a league/team? ... still not sure what the difference is. Sorry to ask dumb questions but I've scoured many N3 sites for info but nothing specific about the online experience has exposed itself :) -- Alky?

If you made a custom car and are using the default car name, t_player.car, then the host will have your car as well, assuming the host is using the default car as well. My suggestion is to rename your custom car to something else. Then put the default car back into the game by copying the file from the N3 CD. Tracy Dean
