Hi, After finishing a 100% race, i was surprised by the fact that only one car did not finish the race due to engine failure .... Isn't that a little low ?? Every failures are activated, but one car ... I've never seen that in a real GP !!

Is the crappy downshifting sound from the demo fixed? -- Header address intentionally scrambled to ward off the spamming hordes. >Hi, >After finishing a 100% race, i was surprised by the fact that only one car >did not finish the race due to engine failure ....

Certainly is low. It's not always an explosion. Other little things like accelerater devices, etc, etc, etc. I would guess that on average at least 1/3 of the field fails to finish. Ok, now who's got the exact figures? :) -- The All-Mighty Lord HOSHUMUNGUS WE, are BORG. YOU, will be ASSIMILATED (if your worthy). RESISTANCE, is FUTILE.
