In Career mode when I'm at the Castlegreen track I race in reverse, is that normal. Also in reverse mode when you come to the finish line at max speed you go airborne for a few seconds and cause damage to the car so you have to apply the brakes just before. Andre
Andre, Yes.. running the tracks backwards is normal. As you move up the ranks you will run some tracks twice in a season and you will run them each way. Really makes for some tough driving trying to learn new braking points, etc for the track going in opposite directions. Im not sure where you are in your career... but if you are getting airbord and causing damage, if you have shocks and springs that are adjustable you might want to increase your "bump" and if you have aero kits you might want to increase your front aero a bit. Im at the GT level and In my first season there. I won my first race at Dayton but I have a feeling Im going to get slaughtered for awhile on the road courses <VBG> I have all options now for the Viper. The biggest thing to learn is that with all that horsepower on the Viper you have to really learn how to feather the throttle and trail brake to get around very well. Good luck.

It's normal in the sense that it's what they want you to do :) I'm doing my first career mode with no damage, so I don't know about the second question. It _is_ hard to make that first turn, though, when you are airborne and can't steer the car until the last minute :) Personally, I despise Dundee's, or whatever that track is. I'm forever getting ass-ended in the two sharp right-handers (now left-handers in PRO) at the end of that longgg straight (well, kinda straight :) ). It's a boring track to me that a pain in the butt. -Larry > In Career mode when I'm at the Castlegreen track I race in reverse, is that > normal.

thanks. Know what mean, it a *** track. to win out of club I had to aaahhh continuously crash the buy who was in first place to that I could win : ) the one I like the best is Castlegreen first and Rock Island second. I wish we had the Editor to make our own, specially if MGI is not working on an update or a Version 2 Andre

That would be a tragedy... -Larry > specially if MGI is not working on > an update or a Version 2
