Has ANYONE yet figured out a way to add new manufacturers, engines, and tire companies to the default ones given in ICR2/NASCAR? I want to be able to include Buicks, Oldsmobiles, Menards, Toyotas, Eagles, etc., and to be able to properly document cars in BTCC sets and the like, even if it's in name only on the screen without settings adjustments. Thanks, Earl

Hi Earl, Ready to design 1996 IndyCar set? What about car set for Indy Racing League and Indy Light?

Hey Earl Ma ! You burnt THAT into my screen : Change the number in the in NUMCH and NUMT (or somethin like that) to how much you want and then enter 'em in the line under it . All this will you have to do in the drivers2.txt . Ciao * * * * * * BYE and always a good connection ! * * * * * * * * * * * * wishes * * * * * * *** W O D A N ***

Yes! I want to do this too, but I don't know how. I saw car sets for ICR1 that included extra engines and chassis though - take a look at the ICR1 Formula 1 car set at The Pits. Jules

Two problems with this: a) You're only allowed to have 3 types of chassis & 2 types of tyres. At least, that's what it says in drivers.txt b) Something I've only just discovered - in my version (1.21), as soon as you leave the Driver Info screen, the game saves the set with the original chassis & tyre names. Bug fix needed, methinks. Greg Hingerty
