N4 : getting rammed by AI

Is it a traditional practise in NASCAR to ram the slower cars ? I note the AI hardly make any effort to avoid ramming into me when I slow down .. I found interestingly that if you forcefully nudge the AI they will " respond " accordingly :-)) Wish more F1 drivers got the balls to do the same.......

You think if Michael Schumacher had fenders Jacques would have won the World championship? dave henrie

With the advanced physics of N4, it's impossible to stop on a dime. If the AI aren't "hacked" they won't be able to avoid you slowing early. I would recommend, try qualifying at the back of the pack and move up through it. The slower cars at the back, will hopefully have similar braking points to you and you won't have this problem. If you're a quick qualifier but slow in race trim this could cause the problems you describe. Jason. Gill Bates wrote:
