NT2003: Where's the Speedometer & Gear Indicator Switch ?

I've looked through the manual and I can't find out where you turn on the Speedometer and Gear Indicator in the in-car view. As shown in the pictures, the gear indicator should be within the Tach, and the speedometer should be right below the tach. Can't find it. I also checked the player file, but it's not there either. I'm sure I'm missing something simple :) -Larry

Apart from this userunfriendly feature, what's it like Larry? -I've been trying to hunt down a demo on and off this afternoon and I've come up blank... usually not a good sign. Jan. =---

I'm going to play around a bit more, then post my initial evaluation. For now, I'll say some things are nice, some thing are lousy :) -Larry "Jan Verschueren" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:RNUs9.171848$[email hidden]...

There is no demo John

I guess no one else knows how to turn on the speedo or gear indicator either :) -Larry "Larry" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:rsYs9.162736$[email hidden]...

I believe it is F4 turns on a little window with speed, gear, etc. "Larry" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:_ymt9.1868$[email hidden]... > I guess no one else knows how to turn on the speedo or gear indicatoreither > :) > > -Larry

Alas, only in 'roof' mode. It looks like when you drive in-car, you are not allowed to see what gear you are in or what speed you are doing on the dashboard. LOL! -Larry "Tanstaafl" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:5TDt9.83730$[email hidden]...

Next time you get a chance to email a Winston Cup driver to ask a question, ask any of them how fast they were going. They won't know! they'll be able to quote to the .tenth a lap time, they'll be able to recite rev's...but how fast??? They just won't know. dave henrie

But at least they'll be able to know what gear they're in at any given point just by looking at the gear lever. NT2003 doesn't give that luxury. :-) -- See ya in the pits, Dean I have a terrible memory. In fact my memory's so bad I can't remember how long it's been since I've forgotten anything.
