Just wondering how the heck have some managed to get the car smashed down to the safety cell? I have tried several 350 kph impacts to walls, other cars, deers, you name it. And I never manage to lose anything but a wheel there and a wing here. No, I'm not a crash freak - that ain't proper in F1 :-) Just testing and chasing some demons. -lark-

OK! Now you are on a subject that I am qualified to talk about!:-) I am a shit driver, no other way to put it. At the start of the race I cut over to get a better spot and ran over Schumachers wheel. I saw my car flip up on its side and slowly turn over and then flip end over end down the track. Hit pause and replayed it. It was amazing! I watched my car flipping end over end with wheels flying off, nose cone, rear (maybe front) wing...when the car came to a rest it was just a shell, and the parts that had flown off where visible at the side of the track. At Monoco coming out of the tunnel I hit the wall (you have no idea how bad I am:-), and watched the replay...you could see the wheel go flying off into the ocean, sea whatever that large body of water is......I love this game.:-) cheers **ElfKing** T'was in a kingdom long ago and far away......

Yeah it seems you get more damage if your involved in a accident with another car hardly any if you hit the barrier etc.., I just posted about the accident I had at Spa. Can you tell me how to replay in game, I have been saving my hotlaps then watching them after the race, did not realise you could do it in game. I totally agree about the game, it rocks. Snake.

Pausing the game then pressing R does the 20 second replay. On Tue, 25 Jul 2000 01:16:10 GMT, "Snake" <[email hidden]> wrote:

Press "space" (that pauses it) then just hit "R" and the replay starts. As it is replaying you can hit the arrow keys , delete, page down, etc to get different camera views of the replay. when the replay ends, just hit the "R" again and try a different view again.........must have reviewed my crash at least 8 times.:-) It was a classic. I havent done hotlaps yet, and never did with GP2, so that I'm not sure about. Cheers
