Is this supposed to happen? (I get a screen that looks like
a TV not tuned to any station after a big wreck). Is this a
feature to simulate unconsciousness (or worse!) or is this a
bug/problem with my hardware? (Voodoo, P133).
PS. I can <esc> to the menu screen with no problem after
this happens, then restart the race.
Yep, you just need to press Shift-R to right yourself on the track
again.

Hmm..got me thinking. After the few hours I've spent having a great
time, I must have gotten myself killed at least 15 times...How will the
damage be modelled? I mean, in those days, if you had a biggie, you were
*very* lucky if you came away mangled for life.Will a tad of seriousness
be added? If you wreck monumentally, will you be able to continue a
champ. season?
Or will your computer explode?:)

I thought it's suppposed to simulate the "in-car" camera being knocked
out.

Since no in-car camera was available in those days, I thought of it as
a "simulated death/injury", since it only happens in the more, um,
flamboyant crashes. I don't know for sure, just my opinion.
It's certainly telling us something, and whatever it is I'd guess it's
in the "not good news" category. :-)
Cheers!

of course, trying to drive with your head between the car and the road
isn't good technique so i would hope people don't see this static too
frequently!:)
