Has anyone ever made a patch that would allow us to run a Saturday night race program on N2003? Just thought it would be cool to have 25-40 guys turn out for qualifying then have the top four go to a 4-5 lap Trophy Dash while the rest could watch. Then, of course, you would have your Heats (with the software calling those drivers that qualified) and then the B & C mains, last chance main and your Feature Main of the night. Would be great to use all short tracks also. I would also enjoy the fact that I could watch whatever race I'm not in. Just a thought.... Michael

A while back, I was developing a concept I was calling "Night Train Express" where there was a series of all the night races in the game, run back to back each Friday night. It was a winner-take-all deal, where the winner of the final race got all the glory for that week. I wanted to be able to limit each driver to a single basic setup of their own design across all 4 night races (Bristol, Richmond, Charlotte, No-plate Daytona), allowing only adjustments for tape and wedge and air pressures to balance the car out for weather. The idea was to see who could come up with the best "compromise" setup for such wildly disparate tracks. I also wanted to be able to specify the order of the starting grid based on finishing position in the previous race, and randomly determine the order of the races in each series, so you'd never know which race is going to be the big payoff, and to encourage strong efforts throughout. But of course, there is no way to accomplish much of any of this in the game, so I put the concept back on the shelf. Maybe someday... cheers, Gerald
