Quick N4 AI question

Hi everyone. I'm thinking about getting N4 after I finish my computer upgrade and I was wondering a couple of things about it. First, does the AI in N4 ever cause crashes by itself? It seems that mose NASCAR sims have perfect driving AI and I think that takes away from the realism. Second, is there a decent cheap wheel/pedal combination recommendation? I don't want to spend a whole lot of money, but also don't want to throw it away on something lame. FF isn't really necessary, unless you all think that it is :). Mohit Dewan [email hidden]

Yep, they crash on their own. Re a wheel, depends on what you mean by cheap $ wise Logitech, ACT labs make some inexpensive ones that are good, Thrustmaster can be good too. You can even go cheaper with a MadCatz setup. -John Mohit Dewan <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:9qo1su$5cn$[email hidden]... > Hi everyone.

First, does the AI > in N4 ever cause crashes by itself? They certainly do, maybe not quite as often as they do in RL(tm), but I haven't played much with the new patch. They also suffer breakdowns, etc. They also suffer from tire wear and have to pit a lap or 2 either side of when you do if you're pitting under green. Cheers, Rod.

Do they still pit AFTER a green flag to end a caution? That always bothered me in N1-N3. I haven't run enough in N4 to notice...
