Yes, of course you did. And my McLaren actually lifted off and took flight in GP2. I buzzed around Monaco checking out the view from an altitude of 500 feet before I breezed in and landed in the tunnel.

I checked out the pictures -- A nice use of Paint Shop Pro, but next time you should do it at a track like Talladega, where a flips actually occur, rather than spend all your time cutting & pasting at Martinsville. Oh, and for the guy who went flying at Monoco: cool! ;) Craig Jacobson
Jim Sokoloff has stated in the past that the changes to Martinsville resulted in a singularity in the program. To recreate it, go to the middle of turns 1&2 or 3&4 (I'm not sure if both do the same thing) and drive towards the grass. Randy

Hey, Paul, I have a picture of me up on two wheels at Martinsville. I also have new ones of me up in the air that I can e-mail if you're interested. The first version (Up on Two Wheels) can be seen at: htp://users.exis.net/~jandl70/NASCAR2.

Craig, This not done with PSP. This was actually done racing at Martinsville. When you're at speed and go up over the curb, the car goes up in the air (you can view it in the replay). The next time I do it, I'll e-mail you the replay...OK?
Ok, y'all don't believe me...Next time, I'll post it in alt.binaries.simualtors.autos...

No it doesn't, you don't flip. Those dumb guys just hit the curb at Martinsvillle or Watkins Glen. Even Sears Point

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Everybody here knows that at Martinsville the car goes on two wheel at a certain point of the track. It because of the delimitation of banks in tracks between the grass and the asphalt (turn two I think). Probably a bug but not really important. It happens once 3 to 4 races but you don't even notice it (maybe juste a little bit) until you see the replay. It's only 1 or 2 frames so it doesn't botter. Papyrus should be working on something else than correcting this very minor bug :) . Thanks a lot, Good race at the Brickyard, (Old'Indytrack guy in rec.autos.simulators) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ =ymenard now!!!
