No, it's not just you. Papy just screwed the pooch on this one. It's
still a fun track to race though, just trying to avoid the idiot AI.
I was running a race there on sunday night, leading by 18 seconds (!!),
running 32.5's, really hooked up. With about 40 laps to go, was
picking my way through lapped traffic, this quad-lapped a$$hole pinched
me down coming out of turn 4... I just *barely* touched his left rear
bumper with my right front... barest of touches... PILEUP!!
When you watch the real deal, if a lapped guy is being overtaken again,
they give the leader the preferred line.
What's even more funny in N3 is some drivers will take the high line
(for no reason), while others take the low one, trying to overtake
traffic is like a crapshoot... go low and get pinched onto the tarmac,
go high and get sideswiped into the wall.
BTW, this subject of Vegas AI in N99/N3 has been visited on this NG
before. It sucks. Makes the track a challenge though :) Gotta keep
from getting loose out of 2 and 4 when you're getting pinched down, but
gotta keep from getting too tight when existing those same corners on
an outside line. It makes for an entertaining, if frustrating, race.
What are most people running here for laptimes after 20-25 laps?? I
got a great setup I tweaked on and I can run 32.5's from about 20-40
laps on green runs... ON RAILS!
