OK, first off, N2 is my fave sim right now. Sit down at PC, look at
pile of CDs, just GOT to throw N2 in the drive. Can't help myself.
-"GET TO THE POINT"
OK,
Just finished my first season, 25% race length, 97% opps (just to ease
myself in, you understand), constant weather, realistic damage, yellows
and pace.
Came in 3rd (Doh!).
In the final race at Atlanta (I'm using the pit bug workaround), I'm
leading comfortably (as I should be at a ridiculously easy 97%), yellows
come out, time to pit. I'm getting serviced in my stall (ooer) and get
rammed by a certain J. Gordon - wow this sim is -so- realistic ;-)
On watching a replay, JG seems to get towed around the track (by the
time he's back to pit lane we're green) stops parallel to my stall,
moves in sideways (like when you've had a tow) and my crew does him! He
leaves and finishes the race. This is fairly minor I suppose but he did
damage my car and almost cost me the race.
Anyway, I did win and got a different end picture. The car seems to be
-on- the pit wall with Atlanta grandstands in the background, I'm (yes,
I know it's not -me-, but you know what I'm saying) standing on the car
with what I can only guess is the Winston Cup in one hand and signalling
with my forefinger implying that I'm number one. But, like I said, I
only came third in the championship.
THEN when I leave back to 'Season Race' screen and decide to review my
progress throughout the year (continue season) my PC crashes!
Well, at least the end of season shenanigans were memorable!
Time to start 50% length, 100% strength, random weather season. Not
going for random breakdowns yet, I'll leave that to the T2!

Anyone got any hint for Rockingham? I'm left standing at 100% :-(
