Attention Papyrus: NASCAR pitting

by Steve Gran » Fri, 05 Apr 1996 04:00:00

Is it a bug or a feature that if you inadvertantly pass the pace car (or an opponent)
on the way to the pits, and you pit before letting the pace car go by, that you get a
black flag for passing under yellow? It happened several times recently that I pitted
and received the "stay behind the pace car" message as I was pitting. As I was
stopped, I could do nothing but sit still as the pace car went by. I still got a
black flag. The AI cars do not seem to be affected by this. I even tried aborting
the pit stop on another occasion when this happened, but I still got a black flag. It
appears that if you get the "stay behind" message, and then pit, you will get a black
flag even after the car passes you.
