.adr files are used in a program called rom-editor. adr files locate address's to popular variables like speed/rev limiters....etc....

.bin files is what runs your car. Inside the .bin file are various maps writen in HEX code. When you translate these maps in to dec then they make much more sense. Some times coverting HEX to DEC will require some complex math, but, for the most part thats what programs like rom editor and live edit are for (although live edit is more of an emulator program).
