N4- Damage Not Being Reported

Is it just me, or are the spotters not reporting damage you have? I've bent fenders up so I could see them, and the spotter never says anything. When the DO say something, they always wait until you are are passed any hope of entering the pits. They are also slow with their car high/low warnings. Some work needs to be done here. -Larry

Have you ever seen in a race where a car is damaged? Sometimes the spotters can not even tell and they ask a car behind them to let them know if and how bad they are damaged. "Dog-Leg" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:yOZl6.19773$[email hidden]...

Often times the spotter won't see the damage until you have made most of a lap or so. I make it a habit to check F9 right after contact has been made and if it says repair then I know I have some damage somewhere. -- Don Burnette D Burnette in N4 Some people do nothing wrong. The problem is, they do nothing. And THAT is wrong.

The spotter will not se the damage until you pass the line. You're right about the other late calls. Brian "Dog-Leg" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:yOZl6.19773$[email hidden]...

**** Post for FREE via your newsreader at post.usenet.com **** Oh, besides, my Dog can tell when the RF tire is flat. He'll at least bark :) I've had the spotter never say a thing, and I find out by hitting turn 1 and sliding straight up into the wall. -Larry "Cliff Roman" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:979qh4$p2q$[email hidden]... > Have you ever seen in a race where a car is damaged?

**** Post for FREE via your newsreader at post.usenet.com **** That's a good idea, Don. Thanks :) It still needs to be fixed, though. Spotter Lag is pretty serious in N4. -Larry "Don Burnette" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:Hr_l6.320714$[email hidden]...

If you drive like you're supposed to and don't hit stuff, you won't have to worry about damage. ;) ----------------------------------------- Dan Belcher Team Racing Unlimited http://simcrash.00game.com
