Just wondering if I'm the only one who gets this. After someone spins and the spotter says to go high/low, he seems to get stuck saying it until something else happens and he resets himself??

He get exited and very confused. Don't take his directions too seriously when trying to avoid a wreck. He often does not consider your position on the track and would have you pull a 90 degree turn at times. However, the good thing is that he does tell you where the wreck is and gives you at least a chance of avoiding it. /THansen

When I came around he was going crazy... I saw a pack of cars on the outside wall, but down by the grass was clear. Just as I passed the pack stuck to the wall, three cars appeared just in front of me. Chrash, Boom, Bah.... I guess I needed to draw a few more cars in front.... I hear that with 40 real drivers, and a very fast system, you still can't effectively draw more then 10 cars ahead. Any truth to this? Mike

I had the spotter get stuck also....Go high...Stay Low...Stay Low...Stay Low...Go High... It's a really annoying bug :( Josh Walsh (sirglock on $$$HAWAII$$$)

Yep, he seems to give bogus info some times. I have learned to trust the mirrors. Once I figured out the 3 mirror panels, driving became much easier.

He will keep saying "Go low, Go High" until you pass the wreck he was talking about. If you are on a short track, say Bristol, and the car is still on the track, he may continue to say that until the car vanishes or the car spins back around and is off again. If the wreck happens right in front of you he will usually quickly say "Watch that spin in front of ya!" or "Watch it..." - Jeff Copperthite

The spotter is NOT working right, not when I go around the track twice and there are no wrecked cars left and the idiot still is screaming GO HIGH!! GO LOW!! GO LOW!! GO HIGH!! all the way through those two laps. Then while the moron is saying all this he forgets to tell me we are going green next time around and the freight train starts rollin without me. Also has anyone went to the pits during a race at Talladega or Michigan and while sitting in your stall minding your own bussiness some car comes in and T-BONES your helpless ass for no reason,if not your really missing out on a great (feature?) trying to stay on the lead lap when this happens.

i find having as many cars drawn in front of you is the most important graphic factor I have on.
