Arrgh! I wish I made a screen-shot... I was doing an off-line race at good old Martinsville and the first caution turned into a real foul up. While waiting patiently in line, the pace car zips by and there's an AI car up high, stuck nose-down in pace car's driver-side window! The two of them are waltzing around the track that way. I sped up and tailed them, frantically pressing every function key hoping to get a screen shot. Of course, in the excitement, I forgot that it's the Print Screen key. Sigh. Time to try again... ...Klinn

I'm not sure if this was an artifact of the replay screen, or an artifact of the game engine (i.e. it's a bug either way), but Terry Labonte got into a wreck once, and then somehow got up on his nose, where he proceeded to spin like an ice skater at a very high rate of rotation (kinda like a tornado). Eventually he drifted back up onto the track and wiped some other AI cars out, all the while continuing to spin like a maniacal dervish. JD
Klinn- I can send you a replay of the pace car taking out the entire field at 110 mph. He just plowed right thorough everybody, took turn 3-4 fill speed like he was on rails. Very entertaining, with cars soaring through the air :-) Ruined the race though... Dave .On Wed, 21 Mar 2001 19:28:14 -0500, "Klinn" <[email hidden]> wrote:

Arrgh again! Nope I didn't think to do that either. These dang-fangled computers - I'll get used to them someday... <g> ...Klinn "Rob Adams" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:3Hbu6.43264$[email hidden]... > Did you save the replay?
I had this happen at Bristol. I have screenshots. Boy, it was pathetic. On Thu, 22 Mar 2001 04:18:45 GMT, LegendNo6 <[email hidden]> wrote:
