On N2, I have this weird problem where at Rockingham, after the green flag is waved all the cars accelerate at the same pace as me, but as soon as they reach the first turn they all brake suddenly and I slam into the back on them. This always knocks me out of the race, and it's very annoying. Any patches or ways to fix this? Thanks -- Sam Johnson NASCAR fan Car person Need for Speed expert Please get rid of the NOSPAM in my email address to reply Go #3, #31, #16, #18, #33

This happens at many tracks. There's no easy fix (fixing it yourself that is), but soon, we hope others that are smarter than us will continue to devise improved AI programs that reduce this tendency, and eventually get Rockingham. For now... be ready for the slow down and "go with the flow" of the traffic during the start. Hey, you can't win it on the first lap anyway, right? If worse comes to worse, and you cause a huge pile up, you can hit the "shift/R" keys and get an instant restart. Saves time. Have fun... God Bless, Andre

These amazing little things called brakes. I think I heard somewhere they are used to slow your car down... :) Just kiddin' ya. But really, either drive by on the outside (not really recommended by ME at the Rock) or slow down with em. Jr On 19 Oct 1997 18:20:10 GMT, "S. Johnson"
