This menu allows you to change the volume of the music and the various sounds.
Car sound volume:
Controls volume of all car sounds relative to music and interface sounds. If you experience a crackling engine sound in-game, lower this value. Default since Version S2 X is 15.0.
Skid volume boost:
Multiplies the realistic skid volume to make it easier to hear. Set to 0.0 for 'realistic' and 1.0 for the 'boosted' volume level. Default since Version S2 X is 0.5.
Wind volume boost:
As above but for wind effects. Note that regardless of this setting, wind noise will be much louder in open topped cars than tin-tops. Default and 'realistic' setting is 0.0. Default since Version S2 X is 0.5.
Echo volume boost:
This determines the volume of the echo effect. The default value of 0.0 should be realistic but you can of course alter it to your likings. However, higher values can increase crackling issues. Default since Version S2 X is 0.5.

To ensure that a track will be played back you have to its priority with 3 being the highest priority, 1 the lowest priority and – the setting to prevent a track from being played. The higher the priority of a song the more likely it is that it is being played back.
