Yeah, and no fluids are coming out of the car. It should build little puddles of liquid, reflecting the upside of the car. Man, you guys are just too funny... -- l8er ronny Your mouse has moved.

Well, I find the engine running flat out while I'm upside down far more annoying. I real life the engine would cut out if the car was tilted over a certain angle. I have noticed the car flipping back over, and I don't use the self correcting spin or invincibility aids. <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:8natur$18df$[email hidden]...

We're not talking about WWII Spitfires here... Formula One has progressed beyond the float carburetor, as has 99.9% of the automotive industry. I'll bet even the dry sump system and cooling system would still function upside down.

yeah, but the engine just holds at whatever revs you were are when you left the ground, it won't change until the car is the right way up. Jez Hawthorne <Jhawthorne@---no psam----rm.com> wrote in message news:8nb1dq$qad$[email hidden]...

I just had a horrific crash with Hakkinen, but luckily I had Invincible switched on. I'm on the track, facing the wrong way, upside down with wheels spinning(but that's another bug). After a few seconds, the car slowly rotates itself so that it's on it's wheels again, and away I go! Anyone seen this? (Replay available in the unlikely event anyone wants it) -Nick

You want to see something really weird and funny, edit the walls (with the downloaded editor) so that the reflection of wall collision is 100. Then at the start of a race where there is a wall on both sides close to the track with invincible on, smash into a wall and you will continue to bounce between the walls. Any car that you hit will also bounce off the walls and parts start flying. <G> I did this and had half the field bouncing off the walls.

No it's not. Invincible is the only one I had switched on. -Nick aep@nospam wrote:

from the self administered sledgehammer blow or do you have someone else on stanby with the hammer for when you crash,as I assume you like TOTAL realism from your comments. Ps: have you tried scalding radiator water or a good mix of petrol and oil,add stab wounds to taste,I find it really adds to the overall enjoyment. > > Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.

That has happened to me too - although I had to wait until the procession of cars had gone past before the car righted itself. I am sure Hakkinen would have righted the car quicker than the autocorrrect did......... You can get quite a few spectacular crashes at the start of a GP - all you have to do is catch your rear tyres on someone elses rears (make sure you have a slight lead first, or you are the one doing the flip!). Whee! watch that car barrel-roll. Steve <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:8natur$18df$[email hidden]...
