As far as I know, you do not need the additional tracks to race on the Hawaii system... your just can't participate in races on those tracks. They are in a seperate track pack which is now almost impossible to find in stores (Sierra has released the game now with ALL tracks included). You can purchase the track pack from Sierra directly, but keep in mind that a new version of NASCAR is scheduled for release sometime in November. ALT-I is the hot key in Hawaii for a tow truck to pull you to the pits! Have fun, hope to race 'ya one day. dglenn

You should be able to find it where ever you bought the game. It'll run you about $29.99 (U.S.), if memory serves me. Well worth it. Not in the current release of NASCAR, but NASCAR2 is supposed to have a tow truck. Hawaii on the other hand does currently have a tow truck. Simply hit ALT-I for a tow. Nope. When you have blown your engine your day is done. Hit A and watch the rest of the race in accelerated time. Hope this helps. Jon

I bought my Nascar racing CD-Rom version about a year or so ago, and just found this newsgroup and all this stuff about hawaii. Welp to my dismay I download everything I need and find out there are 7 other tracks I need in order to even get on Hawaii. Is there an upgrade for these tracks? (without having to go but the SAME game I have now JUST to get the 7 tracks) If so where, how much, etc... Also...While racing sometimes you get damaged so bad that you can't make it back to the pits. Is there any way around this? And what if you damage is so bad that you've blown an engine, or damaged it. Is there any way to get back to the pits and have the crew at least ATTEMPT to get you back into the race if even only for a few laps? Thanks for your help.

You don't need those tracks unless you want to race on them. On Hawaii you will have a tow truck available. -- Chuck Stuart - Mesquite TX USA
