Ahhhh!!! NASCAR 1999 is a good sim...but I'm having so many problems in yellow flag conditions! Or are there rules that I don't know about in NASCAR? For example, I was racing at Homestead the other night with the BGN car set. Trouble in turn one, two cars just got sideways, and pitted. I decided to pit, along with about 10 other cars. Everything was going swell until I met about 4 of those cars leaving the pits. They were going down the backstreach about 110mph...even though the pace car was in turn 1! And I couldn't pass them...spotter kept saying "Stay behind 10 car". So here I was behind 4 slow cars. Spotter said "we're going green". Still, no speed up, just going along like a Sunday drive. And when the green flag dropped, well.... And I had the same experience at other tracks. And I'm not EVEN going to mention other happenings under yellow and while trying to pit (maybe later). I like NASCAR 1999...The AI in NASCAR 99 is more aggressive (which is WAY cool!!), but under yellow conditions, I have seen the strangest things. And it's taking the FUN out of the game with these anoying bugs. The bottom line is this...will Papyrus come out with a patch soon? Thank you. Ed
ED ! This problem is common to all Papy sims - sometimes at short oval you can go lap down because of this bug !! I was witness that one car lapped entire field because other cars (and mine too) couldn't find proper order ! I hope Papy will release (or it will correct it in N3) patch which will modify also another bug - restarting - you can lap 3/4 of the field because AI cars are slowing going turn 1. jarp90

too) couldn't find proper order !<< That happens to me A LOT at Texas. I tried to export some tracks to NASCAR2, but I have yet to see if this makes anything better. Oh well...
