I got into two wrecks last night (neither my fault - of course) and I
didn't get and () incidents when the final scoring came in.  I'm
thinking they improved it somehow from the last version.  Somehow the
sim is better able to determine "fault".   I don't think accidents in
the first lap or two count cause that's usually when all the wrecks
are and it's usually just one person's fault.   Also, maybe if you get
hit in the rear of the car - then it doesn't count cause the system
can assume it's not your fault.  Anyone know for sure??

They'll probably never tell.  Otherwise, certain deviants could take advantage
of the scoring mechanism to hose everyone else's LPI, while preserving their
own...

Never argue with an idiot.  He brings you down to his level, then beats you
with experience...

Same here. Raced Lowes night, got caught up in at least 3 wrecks(not my
fault, THIS time)
and a car warped right in front of me. Rear ended him and I end up 3rd,
get my SW2 and 0 incidents. Also my LPI is 229. That wont last long. LOL
