You could try creating a new player and seeing if the still show up. SCGT is funny that way. Example would be if you change a cars .veh file the change wont be reflected in the car you own till you sell and buy the car again. I havent tried to get rid of the cars that came with the game but I've been reworking .veh files for several months now so I know the game can be funny that way. Also you could try "reclassing" the cars to a class that just flat out doesnt exist. To accomplish this just open the .veh file in notepad, change the class description line (from GT1 to XYZ for example) and it should keep the car from appearing in the buy car screen (though not from showing up in a mixed class race). Hope this helps. Chris

I've been attempting to rid myself of the cars that came with SCGT to no avail. I downloaded the .mas file that would get rid of these cars, and it worked, but the cars are still listed under the "Buy Vehicle" tab. I tried deleting their .veh files from vehicles.mas, but it didn't work. Anyone know how to accomplish this? Nick P.S. I'm only evil in alt.music.rush

Thanks, that worked. Now all the cars I've downloaded are kinda managable! :) Nick Schlomo4 wrote:

There is a util for scgt called veh-edit. this has plenty of options so you can change just about everything in the text file...Including a slider that determines how likely a car will be to join a race. Set all the original cars to zero and you new cars well up the slider, you'll probably see very little of the old cars, even in a mixed class race. dave henrie "EvilNick" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > Thanks, that worked.

I'm actually trying to get rid of them all together, which I've now accomplished. But I still would like the program, where do I get it? Nick Dave Henrie wrote:
