How to make more starters in NR

[NexusCombat]

I'm trying to find out how to add more starters so I can make a full 43 car field. Any tips?
Thanks,

Not sure what you mean "more starters"....in the opponent manager, check your roster file, see how many are checked. You can have from 1 to 99, yourself being the 43rd car.. The game will select random from all the cars you have selected to make up a 42 car field.

Just in case you're talking about shorter tracks, some just don't have enough room for more pit stalls.

In NR2003 the max number of starters is 43. You cannot increase this.

It's 46, actually. There's an exploit you can do which involves modifying the track.ini and red names on the entry list, however it only works on certain tracks. There was recently a thread on this website made by @NascarGuy42 that explains how to do it in greater detail. The exploit itself has something to do with sloppy memory allocation by NR.

In general you would have to open a track in Sandbox, create the extra space needed for the new stalls and then edit the track.ini to reflect the new stalls, length of the pit lane (start and end), and possibly even make new pit lp files if your new stalls hamper the flow of the AI entering or exiting the updated pit area.
