If everyone has daytona on their machine is that enough? Or do the all.cal files have to be identical. I am worried that editing that file will ***up online play. Anyone tried it yet? -- Header address intentionally scrambled to ward off the spamming hordes. cisko [AT] ix [DOT] netcom [DOT] com

I've tried it with mixed results. The first time I raced there, all the cars weren't in their pit boxes correctly, but worked fine. The 2nd time, everything was screwed up and cars kept skipping ahead every 100 yards or so. Racer X Veteran Sim Racer Victory Lane- http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Speedway/1423/

The problem is: Not everyone realizes yet that the Daytona track is available. They see someone advertising a Daytona race at so&so ip# and go there with their converted Talladega track instead. That usually results in an immeadiate disco for everyone. Some people have already begun editing the track text to suit their own personal tastes and I'm sure that is causing havoc as well. (must be nice..."Hey Mr. France, your track has too much grip, lets change that some shall we?") I've run 3 daytona sessions, two were fine, one never got started and I had to totally reboot to join even other tracks. dave henrie
