TRACK.INI
Track.ini is a text file with track-specific parameters. There are ca 200 parameters that can be changed.
I have frequently adjusted some of them, to increase realism or fun factor.
An example of track.ini file is shown below. It is from the original 'michigan' track.
Parameters that I have changed and tested are commented below in red.
Another very useful tutorial track.ini adjustment can be found from:
