FSX ground vehicle speed

This tutorial works pretty nicely. Reduced the speed to 70.000, now trying 75.000 (as a percentage of the default 100.000). Easy to follow, but pay close attention to all steps.

[FONT=verdana, sans-serif]Reducing FSX Traffic speed - an Illustrated tutorial [/FONT]

[FONT=verdana, sans-serif]One of the more "interesting" enhancements which Microsoft introduced in FSX is the vehicle traffic which can be seen on the highways around larger cities and airports. However many simmers feel the speed at which these vehicles travel is considerably too fast and therefore quite unrealistic. One simmer has even commented that he cannot overtake many vehicles when flying low and slow in the default Cessna. [/FONT]

[FONT=verdana, sans-serif]It is quite easy to edit the speeds of such vehicles and the process has been documented in at least one forum post. However I thought it might be useful - especially for those not accustomed to working with command line interfaces - to have a tutorial available which illustrates each step. [/FONT]

ORBX has/had a slower vehicles zip file of replacement configs for ground vehicles.
I got it a few years back and liked it. Think it's still avaiable but you have to sign in for it now.
