I really like Nascar 4, and I can't wait for the patch.!
I've been bitten by the following bug twice and have seen it more times
than that.
What happens is two AI cars will drift literally into each other just
about the width of their tires, or a little less. The next thing you see
is the two cars explode away from each other, generally getting both
cars airborne; like someone set explosives between them and blew them
apart.
Twice I've been unfortunate enough to be near this and the resulting
crash collected me and took me out of contention.
I've seen this happen from the rear as well when a car would stick his
nose into the rear of a car and the car in front would then launch it's
back-end straight up in the air; like someone set explosives under the
rear of the car and ignited them. (Now we're all adults aren't we.?)
Has anyone else seen this?

No, but it sounds like something fun to play with until the patch comes
out! :)

Had 4 cars doing the same thing right beside me.
I laughed my as off. Its a very nice replay of two four cars doing
exactly the same moves...sort of a ballet dance lol

I saw this till I gave up--the AI definitely needs some work. It's very
good to excellent on some tracks, and bad or worse on others, with Phoenix
the worst I've seen so far.

I have a great replay of 2 cars
getting together at Phoenix. One lands on the roof of another. Then the
bottom car drives away with the car ontop! Then going into turn 4 they both
wreck. If anyone wants it, just let me know.

of...it is called "lack of collision detection".
