I installed the AI fix from Mike Pounders found on bhmotorsports.com
and ran a 'Dega race.  It was quite different, here are some
highlights...  (I'm not ragging on Mike, just sharing with everyone)

1. The #55 Square D (B. Hamilton?) was pounding on the back of my
    car during a caution.  Nothing bad, but he acted like he wanted
    around me and kept going high and low and getting into me when he
    was bored. :)

2.  About to take the green flag, Ward Burton decided he needed to pit.
    Being in the outside lane, he decided he would take B. Labonte with
    him who just happened to be on the inside line.  They both spun into
    the infield.  (thanks, automatic 2 place improvement for me :)

3.  During a late yellow flag, one car kept half the field 1/2 lap
    behind the rest of the cars.  On the restart, I was just coming
    out of T2!   I passed as many on the outside as possible and
    settled in behind Dale Jarrett who had Mikey (Waltrip) right in
    front of him.  One lap later Mikey (who was the slow culprit during

    Jarrett when high and I split them (only to be caught by the freight
    train later).

Again, I'm just posting this to see if others have seen this activity or
if it is the game and not the AI.  Thanks to Mike and others who
continually try to improve this and other games.

BTW, the engine sound improvements by Chad Sparks (found on bhmotorsports)
really rocks.  The new sounds are great!

Obvious?  Bhmotorsports.com focuses alot on NH and in NH
the AI is also bad. No, not too obvious. Posting revelent info in the
original post tends to help take the quess work out of it.

I've no idea, I've never heard of him.
So it's not that obvious after all ;)

Hi Tim - I've had the same 'swerve into pits from the outside line' problem
crop up in my un-patched N4. It was hilarious watching the car on the inside
try to force the other one back onto the track. They were pushing each other
back and forth. When they finally ended up spinning on the grass just past
the pit entrance I half-expected the drivers to jump out and start a***
fight!

So this one, at least, is not due to the AI fix you tried out.
