GP2 - Big Bug in Perfect Publishing Paul Ricard Circuit.

I downloaded Perfect Publishing Paul Ricard Circuit demo for GP2 from the
web and installed it. All seemed to be working OK during my practise runs
but when I started a Non-championship race the bug appeared.
When the computer cars want to pit they  enter the main straight and
accelerate to 3rd gear until they reach the yellow pit entry line. They
then turn sharp right to enter the pit.  They hit the pit wall, and come
to a crashing stop. Some cars knock the front wing off. Some cars bounce
off the inner pit wall and continue down the main straight along the main
straight pit fence and do another lap.

The cars crash to a halt because I've set car damage to occur at 60mph
via Martin Granberg's Damage Editor v1.1. Even so the cars should not be
hitting pit walls in the first place.

Anyone seen this problem too.

thanks,
Robert Yates.

yes, everyone experiences this problem. But I have seen a message somewhere that
the problem DOESN'T happen when you replace _Aida_ by Paul Ricard instead of
_Magny COurs_. The reason seems to be that Magny COurs has pits on the left,
while Paul Ricard has them on the right.
Aida has them on the right, and this could be the trick!
