Yeah, I think Papyrus knows that some of the AI is not so hot.  Going into
oval corners are a problem too.   There are some kamakazi AI drivers at
other tracks too.  I have a replay of an AI car *accelerating* _through
the WALL_ at turn 4 at Long Beach.  The car actually goes THROUGH the
walls, and the replay editor shows that the car actually accelerated
from the time it left the track to the time it reappeared - in the side
of my car, unfortunately.  (Maybe this is a variant of the 'teleport' bug
which has teleported me 150 meters down the straight at Long Beach into
the side of Mario Andretti...)

Waiting for ICR 2.0...

Ditto to everyone's sentiments about ICR's flaws.  Hopefully the new version
will correct these AND add Miami!  :)   Now the NASCAR Racing is out, perhaps
they can get back to it.

  Maybe do what LucasArts did.  First release X-wing then TIE fighter
THEN X-Wing deluxe CD-ROM.  Except ICR then NASCAR then ICR deluxe.
I paid for X-wing deluxe and would to ICR 2.0 if they improved AI.
