yes sir. you have helped alot. so i just need to focus on the asphalt grip? thank you again. calvin
Calvin, all short tracks are made differently. Sometimes the creators of the track assign different grips on the racing surface other than asphalt. For instance the bottom groove might be asphalt grip, the middle groove concrete and the top groove paint. The only way to know for sure is to open the track in Sandbox and look. But if you're not familiar with Sandbox and just want to fiddle with the grip settings in the track.ini, then to be on the safe side, make all your grips the same. So if you increase the asphalt grip up to 1.35, then make it 1.35 for both the concrete and the paint as well.
And here's another trick... say the asphalt grip is 1.05. If you want to increase it to 1.30, then put a semi-colon in so you'll remember what the original grip was, like as follows:
track_asphalt_grip = 1.30 ;1.05
Anything after the ";" is not read by the game.
Good luck experimenting. It's one of the great features of NR2003. You can tailor the feel and experience to your own liking.
