- You can now edit the track names in this file manually.
Notes:
- When you edit the names, you must make sure that the PIT prefix is not touched, you can only change the Track_XXX part of the line. (e.g. PIT TRACK_001 to PIT Silverstone)
- The name can't have more than 16 characters.

- Copy the new file to the SD cards for the pit lane timers you want to transfer them to.
Note:
When you are ready to load the pit locations onto the unit again, you should always Clear All Pit Locations from the unit first.
Menu -> Pit Lane Menu -> Manage Pit Locations -> Clear All Pit Locations -> OK button.
When new pit lane locations are added from the SD card, these will not overwrite the currently stored location but add to them. Therefore, when you are making edits it is best to clear the old list from the unit memory before you load the edited list to avoid duplications.
