N4--why is my car the only one that flies?

I've been driving Zen Joltis a lot.  Speeds approach 240 MPH.

Every time my car turns sideways, it flies.  There can be 15 other
cars spinning, mine is the only one that leaves the ground.

I know the real cars fly too at this speed, but why is it only my car?

In your player.ini file [i.e ..\Nascar
Racing4\Players\"YOURPLAYERNAME"\player.ini] be sure this is set to 1:

[Aerodynamics]
employRoofFlaps=1                        ; are roof flaps effective?

Hmmmm

It's already set to 1.  In all of my replays, the roof flaps are
working.

AI cars use a simplified physics model that does not simulate air lifting the
car off the ground.
