id say when the full version comes out in Febuary a yellow would come out in this instance. Then the track cleanup/tow truck would come out and pull ya off the barrier and tow ya back to the pits. Probally like N3 does now. I dont think there is a tow feature implemented in the demo. -- Donny Nelms [email hidden] D_Nelms on WON Bullbag on WWW.Firetalk.com Member of International Brotherhood Of Electrical Workers http://www.ibew.org Union Electricians Do "IT" Without Shorts!

Anyone else drove head on into the tire barrier at the entrance of Pit lane? I got loose coming off of turn 4 and was headed to the pits, but tried to steer back to the track. I hit the tires nearly dead on, and got stuck in them. I tried everything to get out, but couldn't. What would happen if this was a league race. Is there any way to get out of the tire barrier, and continue racing, or are we just hooped. Dean

Perhaps you need to fit these tyres to your car and then you *wouldn't* lose traction in the first place! :-) -- Regards, Bruce Kennewell, Canberra, Australia. --------------------------- Dean Williams <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:BtTV5.129619$[email hidden]... > Anyone else drove head on into the tire barrier at the entrance of Pit lane? > > I got loose coming off of turn 4 and was headed to the pits, but tried to > steer back to the track.

You ever get stuck in a hay bail at Watkins in a league race on pro damage? It can really make you mad. Sometimes you gotta live with things...But as Donny said, the caution would probably come out and tow truck would pull you out.

If you run into the pace car at slow speeds, your rear goes up in the air and stays there, kinda funny. "Andrew MacPherson" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Otherwise you'll have to venture online... where you're likely to find some of us running into the back of it or complaining about the slow guy at the front blocking the track ;-) Andrew McP "Rolling start?
