First of All Please take a minute and Rate my Code.=)
It uses Object Orinted Programming to Make a Nascar Racing simulation. The race is formed of 33 Cars if random aspects effecting it.
We start with 33 cars, all of which are identical The race is 500 miles. We're going to do the
simulation using clock ticks of .5 seconds. All cars start at zero velocity, and when the race
starts they all gain speed at a uniform rate of 0.0020833 miles per second
(about 7.5 miles per second) plus a random amount of 5% added or subtracted from the added speed
until it reaches a cruising speed of .41667 miles per second (150 miles per hour). It then
maintains this speed plus or minus 3%.each car has
20 gallons of fuel. The fuel consumption of the car is normally 30 miles per gallon, divided
by the car's current speed divided by 10, e.g. if the car is going 150 miles per hour, its fuel
consumption is 30/(150/10)=2 miles per gallon. However, if the car is less than .01 miles (52.8 feet)
behind another car, its fuel economy improves by 10% because it's in the draft. However, it cannot
stay in the draft more than 100 clock ticks (50 seconds) before the car starts to overheat, in
which case the car pulls out of the draft and gets normal fuel mileage. It cannot draft again
for 100 clock ticks because the engine has to cool down. A lap in the race is 2 miles, so each
time the car has traveled a multiple of two miles we check its fuel. If it doesn't have enough to
complete two more laps (4 miles) at the current rate of consumption, it must pull into the pits at
the end of the next lap. In this case, when the car comes to the next multiple of two miles (end of
lap), it decelerates at the same uniform rate as acceleration (only with no random amount added or
subtracted) until it has zero velocity. It then sits for 20 clock ticks (10 seconds) and then
accelerates back up to cruising speed.

Please, Leave questions, comment(good or Bad) i can learn from my mistakes. just say something. lol i play around to much. buh bye Wilton Marranzini (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
Very cool for a consule mode program, too good, learn to make them in GUI (windows). Use DirectX or GDI(slow!). (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
Good code <---xmp pl> (If this comment was disrespectful, please report it.)
