I was chasing down a friend in N3 on Vegas last night. All was fine until
I closed right on his back bumper. Coming out of turn 4 I was going to pull
down and pass, but my car just spun down the track. Replay showed that just
as I got close to almost touch him, (inches apart), the nose pushed out and
away I spun. I'm figuring loss of down force but do not know if Papyrus has
modeled it that close. It was repeatable so there is really something there.
