Black Flag Addition Pentium Performance Race End Creating a Boot Diskette Yellow Flag Notes Miscellaneous You may not use these versions with any video cards other than the cards they were created for.
Note: If you are using one of these special versions, you may save a small amount of hard disk space by deleting the versions that you are not using. EXE if you are using the Matrox version. Please note that this is not the same as clicking on a DOS Prompt icon. You must completely shut down Windows To do so, make sure that a CD is in the drive, then type that drive's letter and press enter for example, D:. You must contact your hardware manufacturer to get these drivers loaded. The primary areas which will be affected are the aerodynamic drag and the downforce.
The severity of the effect depends on how much damage the car has sustained. If you look at the F9-Pit Status view you will notice "repairs" as one of the things your crew is going to fix next time into the pit. Once in the pit, your crew will remove damaged pieces and try and fix other crumpled areas of the car. This could take some time depending on how damaged the car is. Once they are done, the timer in the upper right corner will change colors and you can re-join the race.
The car will not be perfect like it was when you started the race but at least you'll be able to finish and get some all-important championship points. Sometimes you may not want the crew to fix the car damage. For example, at a short track like Martinsville the effect is not as serious as it would be if you were at Talladega.
On the F9-Pit Status menu just press "enter" to toggle between "repairs" and "do not repair". Now the crew won't bother to repair the crumpled sheet metal. However, if you do have damage to your wheels the crew will fix that no matter what. After all, you need the wheels in order to drive! F4 - Tire Temperature In the F4 view, the temperature numbers will change color depending on how hot the tire is.
White is normal or ok. Yellow means the tire is getting a little hot. Red means the tire is overheating. If your tires are constantly red it means there is a problem with your setup or it is time to change the tires. Hotter tires wear faster, so, if you have a bad setup in which the tires run too hot you will most likely have to pit earlier and more often than your opponents. One way to affect tire temperatures in the garage is too change the tire pressures.
Higher pressures will yield lower temps and lower pressure will yield higher temps. Tire Temperatures, Part 2 It is important to remember that when you start a session practice, race, etc your tires are cold. If you jam on the gas your car is likely to spin out. When the tires are cold the car has a tendency to "oversteer".
Take it easy on the first few laps around the track. Let the tires warm up before putting the gas to the floor. Once they are you'll find the car will lose that "oversteer" tendency. F5 - Tire Change In the F5 view, the bars under the tire boxes indicate the amount of wear that tire is undergoing. The bar will change color depending on the current wear of the tire. Green indicates a new or hardly worn tire. Yellow means the tire is getting a little worn.
Red means the tire is very worn and it could blow. Once the tire wear is red you should definitely come into the pit to get fresh rubber. Generally, a car will be able to go about 80 to miles before needing to come in for tires and fuel. However, some tracks are rougher on tires than others.
Worn tires are not as fast as fresh tires, sometimes by as much as 3 or 4 mph. The car's handling will change when the tires get too worn. Most likely the car will develop a "push" or "understeer" in the corners. Championship Season Upon entering a championship season for the first time you will see the season schedule.
Selecting "enter" will take you to the first race in the season at Atlanta. After the race is over, selecting "exit" will take you to the season race results screen. This screen displays the results of the race just completed.
At the bottom of the screen are three options "print", "save", and "done". Selecting "done" or hitting "enter" will take you to the season standings screen. This displays the standings of the race for the championship. You will also be able to "print" and "save" from this screen. A yes will take you again to the season schedule. If you press "enter" with the cursor on Atlanta or later, any race already completed , you can view the standings from that race.
Selecting "enter" will take you to the season standings screen and then to the next race. The game will automatically save the season for you. Anytime you leave the championship season you will be able to pick up where you left off.
Select Continue with Automatic Sound Setup after reading notice. If you receive a message that the autodetect failed, you will have to set up the sound card manually.
Select Return to Main menu and see instructions below. If you receive a message that detection was successful, select Accept Current Values and Proceed.
