Typically you'd see around 5 cautions or so, of course these are all
computer created.  If the person playing sucks you'll see a lot more
than that.

There are usually 2 or 3 or 4 cars that drop out due to mechanical
problems.

The computer cars have an uncanny ability to not get envolved in an
accident, so most wrecks end up being single car casualties.

On 100% at the 600 at C***te you'd probably see about five cars out
do to accidents, BUT it really varies from race to race, just like
real life.

In the example you give, the number of cautions will be around 4-5  - which
is rather realistic.  However, on short tracks you often see fewer than 4
wrecks - which is not too realistic.  At Hickory, for example, you often run
the distance caution free.

You will lose over 10 cars in a 100% race at C***te.  The field will
probably end up around 26 cars or so with 4 out due to damage and the rest
out with mechanical problems.   This number is too high.
