I decided to add another dimension of "reality" to my game playing and turned on yellow flags. Now I am wondering if there is a yellow flag bug. While leading at Long Beach, Al Jr and I tried to pass a backmarker (I was putting a lap on Al, a second on the other car). The other car was between us, it spassed, tapped me then hit Al. I was able to continue, Al did a bit later. Yellow came out and the pass car picked me up as leader. A lap latter, here comes Jr. driving past me and the pace car. The others, suddenly I went from first to 8th! What gives?

Well thats an easy one...Al is the former King of Long Beach and he can damn well do whatever he pleases there. I guess I have to ask, do you have the patches for ICR2? or are you running the already patched CART RAcing version? dave henrie (yes there are some bugs in that old jewel) Bryon Lape wrote:

I running whatever "updates" were loaded from the Sierra website when I installed it. Dave Henrie wrote:

It's a longstanding bug. There's no fix. I don't recall off-hand whether any other tracks get affected besides The Beach. Jonathan Bishop
