N2: Talladega Qualifying times

I am working on improving the AI at Talladega. However, it seems that there is no way to avoid bumping the RELS line in the track.txt file. This however really plays havoc with the BLAP time. So to get an idea on a proper fastest qualifying time, what are your best qualifying times at Dega? -- **************************** Michael E.

Hello Michael, At 70 degrees my qual times at dega are in the low 195s. Right now I can usually qual around 5-9 position. To bad I can usually be leading after acouple laps. Haven't up the rels yet. I hope this helps Jay Taylor

The one gripe I have with the AI is that after a 100% length race there are only 4-6 cars on the lead lap. I guess I could go bump up the numbers for every driver, but what a pain. Hope to see you succeed. Berg

195.912 I know it's weak.

195.5xx

: > what are your best qualifying times at Dega? : 195.912 : I know it's weak. That's weak? I think you need to have your car taken in for a good NASCAR inspection. I was happy when I got 49.157 seconds (194.804 mph). Now you know why I was asking for input from "real" drivers. -- **************************** Michael E.

Did that time come from a 70 degree day or a 40 degree day?

What temp is that at? If it is at 70deg, then you won't see me at Dega very often in the NRO! Berg

Guess I should've read your post more carefully....you wanted fastest Qualifying times. I just grabbed this figure from N2HQ...which is my fastest lap speed (during a race, most likely in draft).. My fastest Qual at Dega: 70 degrees, no wind, constant weather: 193.532 Hope that clears matters some. And yes, I know it's weak. :-)
