All the pit functions work when the game is paused....sure it takes a little reality out by being able to stop time - but hey, since you have to use your hands to talk to the pit crew it is sometimes necessary for big changes, unless you have about 10+ programable buttons on your wheel. Just remember to wait until your going straight before you pause - being in mid turn is not a good time to stop unless you want to kiss the wall when time is unfozen.

1. Read the manual for pit stops adjustments (F9 Key). 2. The guys on the track in front of you will cause you to be flagged if you pass them before you enter pit road. Consider the entrance to pit road to be 1 car length before your pit and you'll be fine. Listen to your spotter on the exit to fall back in line, even if you don't agree because you'll be flagged. -- Wayne M.
