Texas Track

When I'm at the Texas track (N2)..the car seems to be resting on grass...and I have to break through a barrier to get to the track...seems odd..I know. Has anyone else experienced this?..How can it be rectified? Could someone send a copy of a good track file? Thanks, Bob

says... Sounds like you are using a hacked Texas track. Are you? If so, go buy the Track Pack. It has the REAL Texas track...not a hack job of C***te. It drives totally different than C***te. -- Mike (TEN ID:mpete) -- Mike's Nascar World [link lost in import] Stop on by, what can it hurt?

Well, he is maybe doing something "legal". There is a legal version of Texas on the Internet made by the Robinson Racing guys. They don't put the dat file in the program (like the BB&B guys). All you need is the N1 C***te.dat file. He probably only has the N2 dat file, and it makes this when you take the wrong one (puts you in the infield and stucked).

Where can you get the N1 dat file for C***te? Is it in the demo? I never d/led the demo because I have a Cyrix chip and the demo didn't run on Cyrix chips (I think). TP

>Where can you get the N1 dat file for C***te? Buy Nascar Racing 1 Nope The Nascar1 demo has only a 3lap qual around Talladega AFAIK. You can buy Nascar1 for 5.99$ easily if you make some little search. Funny story under vvvvvvvvvvvvvv Some local store where I live still sells Nascar1 for 79.99$ CAN without the Add-on tracks ! I went to the manager and told him why was it that high, when just around the block there was a Wal-Mart where I could buy it for 10bucks. He told me "Since the Nascar1 and 2 box looks the same (It was not the Sierra Original box, but a normal box) , we want to make profit with Nascar1 at that price if somebody buys the N1, thinking it's Nascar2". And I'm not joking !!!!. I never returned to the store. Btw for you Montrealers it's called "CD-Rom Dpot". Boycott this store please. <snip>

Try rebooting the BGN pack

Hi, This is also rampent in atlantic Canada, just a couple of months ago my local Future Shop was still selling T2 wheels for $199! (and it was priced as low as $79 in some places before Christmas!). While I was looking around there before Christmas, they didn't even have the GN Expansion pack, which had been out for about 2 months by then! Later, John

Just so there is no misunderstanding here....I do indeed have the BGN expansion pack. I'm not sure why my Texas track does this...except maybe its some of the updates I've found on the net and I haven't installed them correctly. My tracks and game however are legal.

says... Legal or not, why would someone want to drive C***te/Texas instead of the one that Papy put out? It drives totally different. And it's not like the TPack cost a million dollars.... -- Mike (TEN ID:mpete) -- Mike's Nascar World [link lost in import] Stop on by, what can it hurt?

Same deal here in Australia at a place called*** Smith Electronics. The same place charges $40 to install a new cpu and $70 for the installation of a CD Rom. I queried them about it and they assure me that lining the pins up on the cpu is a very tricky business :)))

says... What updates have you done to the track? Make sure that you are not trying to put these char/texas updates on your Texas files. They will not work together as the tracks are different. Have you tried copying the files from the CD to your hard drive? (just the texas folder) -- Mike (TEN ID:mpete) -- Mike's Nascar World http://www.mnworld.com

Then make sure you clear the Read-Only attributes/properties from this file once you copy it. -- **************************** Michael E.
