Having computer controlled cautions would have really been great in my
league race at Pocono Friday night.  I just came out of the pits and was
ready to go green the rest of the race.  I won the pole and led every
lap until pitting.  The car that was in second before the stop came out
right behind me and we went around and caught the field.  I was in the
outside lane behind the cars that didn't pit and the guy behind me was
on the inside behind me.  Then, for no reason, the car behind me swerves
over and slams me into the wall.  I don't know if he did it on purpose
or not.  My right front was damaged and I lost a wheel.  If the computer
controlled the cars on pace laps this wouldn't have happened.

I think this would be a great addition to the game for the reason being
it would keep you out of trouble during cautions.  I don't have a
problem with running into the side of a car while under caution, but the
guys in front of you may slow down suddenly, and I am usually cycling
through  the standings and run right into the back of them.

ADD IT ED !!!!!!

As if it were that easy:)

I've made this request several times. I suggest that the autochat keys be
swapped with the graphics details keys. How often do you need to change
graphic detail during a race?
