Hi,

First of all, great site and forum. The information and downloads are incredible.

I downloaded the Indianapolis Oval track, and it looks great. There is one problem, though - the set up that the computer cars drive with is too slow. They only reach 196 mph (give or take) on the straights. Is there a way of changing this so they drive at a more realistic speed?

Thanks

Richard

i think you can change the speed for the ai drivers in the magic data file :-)

...OR you can just setup the car with wings and gears too a faster mode.
THAT change the final speed. Results more than 400 KM/h in a F1 easy.

When i've played the Indy oval on my gp3, I've noticed the computer cars drive faster at a higher difficulty setting :).

Because the CC Power is higher in the md.

I use Nathaniel Porter's version of Indy, called "Indy500" (available from this site I think) and when I used it the other day, in Slot 1 of GPx, and set the difficulty to Ace, the cars were reaching roughly 232/233mph on the straightaways and slowing to roughly 220mph in the turns. It's realy realistic and so easy to get sudden understeer if you get too close on the entry to the turns, watch out for the entry to Turn 2!

Its a magic data setting. Many tracks have CC car grip set to around 90% on the fast tracks which was suited to the 900+ bhp cars. The little 750 ish V8's this year are far more affected by drag. So, set the cc cars to 100% for grip and power to test. Next set the air resistance high (more efficient) so you get the right speeds in your driven car. Lastly re-set the cc grip and power again so they are competitive.

Hi,

Thanks very much for all of the replies.

I will look into editing the magic data files :)

Regards,

Richard
