Has anyone figured out how to pit at Bristol without getting a "Failed to
enter the pits properly" Bogus Black Flag?

The more I play N4, the less impressed I'm getting.  Hate to say it, but it
was NOT ready for release.

I totally agree. Papy knew Bristol was flawed.  It might as well have been
excluded because it is un-raceable with AI.

No, we got the same problem racing online at this track. We did a 35%
race the other night: a guy received no less than 12 BFs. Everytime he
entered the pits to serve a penalty, another one was given. At one
point, in addition to the penalty, the crew did a full service!!!

Try keeping at least 2 tires on the outside line on pit road.

Some people do nothing wrong.
The problem is, they do nothing.
And THAT is wrong.

Pit like you see the big boys on TV:

1. Use the apron below the yellow line when slowing down.  This is
usually on the entrance to T3.
1. Stay to the outer lane when entering the pit.
2. Don't cut through anyone elses stall to get to yours.  This includes
the entrance and exit of your stall.
3. Exit the pit below the yellow line and stay there until the back
stretch or until the spotter says you can merge.

See, it's simple :)

I pitted many times in our race yesterday, but only had one 1 sec
penalty for unsafe entry.  I was too low when coming into the pit lanes.
