How do you take off the restrictor plates?

The subject pretty much says it all what do you change in order to take off the restrictor plates. Also is there some text files somewhere which explains what the various settings in the track text files mean? I'd appreciate someone emailing me and letting me know. Alexander Dimson

go into dos type cd\nascar\tracks\taladega then type edit taladega.txt look down to i think the third line. i think i says spwy beside it shows the number 1 and abuch of other numbers . change he 1 into a 0 if you have any problems email me at rustyian ian
To take off the restrictor plate at say, Talladega simply change directory to \NASCAR\TRACKS\TALADEGA and edit the file taladega.txt. There is a line in that looks like this: SPDWY 1 42 45 change the 1 to a zero so it looks like this SPDWY 0 42 45 save the file and restart NASCAR and you will find yourself hitting almost 230mph down the back stretch! The only problem occurs in two player games if one person has the restrictor plate on and one has it off, it doesn't work. In the TALADEGA.txt file you can also edit how many laps the race is, the Best lap time etc. The other tracks have a similar layout. I hope this helps.
