Terje Wold Johansen recently posted a list of them. A lot are fairly
minor like the rev warning light not working properly. The worst one
is the yellow flag bug which can really***up pitstops under a
yellow flag. I forget the exact circumstances in which it happens
since I have long since stopped playing ICR2 but is basically forces
you to wait for other cars which pass you on pit road while you are
pitting. Hopefully there will be a fix for this soon. (Sorry to go on
about this one Mr. Genter, but it does spoil the game somewhat !).

Hmmm. That's a tricky one. They are quite different games (I'm not a
subscriber to the school of thought which says that the cars in ICR2
behave just like Nascars - they don't). I'm playing Nascar much more
at the moment - partly because of the bugs in ICR2 and partly because
I'm finally getting the hang of Nascar (look, it's hard OK ?). Despite
the bugs, ICR2 is a great game though.

I believe there are two accelerated versions of Nascar available
bundled with the Creative 3D Blaster and the Diamond Edge card. I've
heard some good reports of the Creative 3D Blaster version, and no
reports of the Diamond Edge version. It's probably worth waiting until
at least the end of the year to see what other 3D graphics cards
become available and what ends up being the standard.
