DownloadFlip Patch
Author: Dan Belcher
This is the flip patch by Dan Belcher that can be used for the default carset or ones based on its shape. It replaces the damaged parts of the body with actual indycars, so that in a crash cars will appear to start flipping. It is merely a visual effect, as Indycar Racing 2 does not actually support the cars getting into the air. (This was first introduced in Papyrus sims in Grand Prix Legends a couple of years later.)
DownloadLap Analyzer (trial version)

You can use this utility to analyze the laps from a replay file. Use it to compare your performance with your opponents.
