Thanks daxe, I just sent it, BTW, anyone, I have 9.9 meg replay that I pulled the picture from, any way to edit it down to just the "crunch" footage? Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.

It stayed attached but the axle was all bent up and the wheel was like sitting there hanging and the car was rocking allover the place.... it was just damn cool. BTW have you noticed you can actually see the camber adjustments to your tires when you drive? It's an odd sight when you set up 10 degree camber... hehe

Anyone else get the hood to disappear? Fairly nice motor modeling for the demo. I had vertex damage off, and had a "incident" with another car, smashed the front end up good. My spotter said "you're leaking water from the radiator". Pulled into the pits and pit crew, (so cool), changed the 4 tires and just as they finished the hood disappeared. I have a 77k screenshot of the car/motor if someone has a site where I can e-mail it for posting. Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Before you buy.
With vertex damage I managed to bang the car from all sides pretty good, but couldn't get a single tire off. I also wasn't able to do much damage (visual) to the car without vertex damage. Marko <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:8naj2h$6g1$[email hidden]...

I'll put it up for you. email it to me: [email hidden] ~daxe
I believe NASCAR would not allow MGI to show flying debris so damaged tires and part will probably stay on the cars, even though the earlier preview stated the game would have debris. I guess NASCAR didn't want to promote the image of fans being crushed by flying tires. ...but maybe Im wrong, I mean the cars fly and they seem to be confined to the track and unable to fly into the stands so why couldn't tires...I would love to see a game allow you to crush your radiator because you nicked a rolling tire or something. oh, that and TIRE DONUTS - when will we have tire donuts?

With the damage modelling in the demo these cars can take a LOT of abuse. I enjoyed overrevving to see fire (or at least orange smoke) bellow out of the hood :) <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:8naj2h$6g1$[email hidden]...
