Jim, could you tell me about how often the human player will have a
random breakdown. I've had 2 in my last 4 races in a championship
season. To say the least, its not doing my chances for winning the
championship any good. I still love this feature though.
Thanks Cowen Wilson

Off the top of my head, I'd estimate that a human player will have a
random breakdown about 1 in 9 100% length races?

Eric....
I have my Season set at 30% race-lengths and have experienced two
breakdowns to date (about half-way through).
