CPR and yellow flags

Is there a way to get yellow flags in the race? After a crash the
wrecked cars standing there forever and the race is going on.
If there are no ways  to turn on yellow flags, it was the last time  i
played this "sim".

Nope, sorry to say, but there's no way to get yellows in the game.  Just
another HUGE reason why this game stinks

Sorry my friend, you just became the proud owner of another "coaster"!
(unless of course, it's less than 30 days old, in which case, send it back
to MS. Many of us have!)

Since we race in heats of 3-5 guys the racing is close and yes sorry they
didn't include yellow flags.
Maybe in the next patch or CPR2.
But hey we dont really need no stinking flags eh? :-)

Cya , Mike

the people at tri or who ever makes the patches are working on that right
now, to be added in to the next cpr patch.  there are also other features
they are about to add in this up and coming patch.

In other words you are saying that professional CART drivers don't know
how to drive and that's why they need yellows.  I appreciate your having
cleared this up for us. <G>

Why laugh?  We're short of one potentially very good product, just as
we were with CPR - I can't see much there to laugh about. Fair enough
if beating on Microsoft is high on the agenda, but I'd rather have a
good product than a gilt-edge schadenfreude opportunity.

Cheers!

Man, I haven't seen a gilt-edge schadenfreude opportunity since the
Smith Brothers choked on their cough drops...

   Fil, you musta just missed Dean's post on the Apex. It seems Tri is
out of the picture altogether. There is NO work being done on CPR at
present because the MS team that will handle it is working on MTM2 and
are then going on holidays, LOL. And then they're gunna think about it.
Why am I not suprised? I won't be able to stop laughing if they botch
MTM2 as well :)

   Well laughing is a better option than crying don't you think John?
Sure I want CPR to be what it should. And since MS released it early and
it's still in alpha 4 months in I'm gunna continue to give MS a hard
time too. I personally don't give a stuff about MTM2 and it's just
further outrage that CPR gets forgotten whilst MS work on what will
probably be another dud. As far as "schadenfreude" goes, that's unfair!
