All Working NASCAR Racing 3 Cheats - PC

No restricter plates at Talladega
Note: This procedure involves editing a game file; create a backup copy of the file before proceeding. Use a text editor to edit the "taladega.txt" file in the "tracks/taladega/" folder in the game directory. Locate the line that starts with "SPDWY" and change the first number from "1" to "0". Speeds over 230 miles an hour may now be obtained.

Easy win
To win easily, turn off damage and put the laps and the cars down. You can now go backwards and take out the rest of the field. Then, just finish the race.

Competitive races
Note: This procedure involves editing a game file; create a backup copy of the file before proceeding. Use the following trick if you ared tired of having to change the opposition strength (OPPS) at the race menu every time you race at a different track. First, set the OPPS within the game to 100%. For example, if you are racing at Atlanta, go to the Atlanta track folder (/nascar3/tracks/atlanta) and create copies of the "atlanta.txt" and "records.txt" files in the same directory. Open the "atlanta.txt" file, then scroll down the arcane capital letter words such as "TNAME", "SPEEDW", "LENGT". There are only a few lines that you can change without crashing the game:

LAPS: How many laps are in a full length race.

QUAL: How many qualifying laps there are. Do not change the first number. There should be two. The first number is only a place-holder.

BLAP: The average qualifying time for the computer cars, x 1000. For example, if the time is 23.456 seconds, it will appear here as 23456. Find your average qualification time and enter this here to qualify near the middle of the pack.

RELS: Same as opposition strength. If you have both RELS and OPPS at 97%, the cars would travel at 97% of 97% (or 94%) at that track.

Create your own seasons
Note: This procedure involves editing a game file; create a backup copy of the file before proceeding. You can also create your own seasons by editing the ones provided by the game. These will be in the main folder called "nascar3". Look for a file called "nascar.cal". Open it in a text editor. You will see five numbers for each track, for example: 1 3 7 0 0. The first number is the race number. In the example, this would be the first race of the season. The second number is the month of the race. The third number is the day of the race. The meaning of the fourth number is unknown. The fifth number is a "0" for a day race or "1" for a night race. After the number will be the name of the track in all capital letters. Then, the event name appears twice, followed by how many laps you will race in it. Whatever the laps is defined here overrides what is in the .txt file for any track. Then there will be the two image files for used for track information when starting a race.
