f1 c pit questions

when i lose a wing or whatever, i hit "s" which will call up my pit crew. then i go into pits and the car automatically slows down and goest to my crew, gets fixed up, fueld, etc. and then the computer controls till the yellow line where i can gun it again. but, everytime during a race, i end up getting a stop go penalty to do within 3 laps. first, how do i serve one of these? second, how come i am speeding? there is a rev limiter but that doesnt do anything, and when entering the pits am i supposed to drop speed to 49 mph manually? thanks

If you have the Pit Assistance turned on, then the computer will control the car into and out of the pits. However if you come barreling towards the pits at Full CHat, then the computer won't have time to get slowed down to the pit speed. The rev limiter doesn't work if you have Pit Assistance turned on cuz the PA is engaging the Rev Limiter automatically. If you turn OFF the pit assistance, then you can manually turn on/off the pit lane speed limiter. But again, you have to balance how fast you approach the pit line entrance with your ability to get whoa'd up in time before you cross the pit entrance line painted across the entrance to the pits. A stop and go penalty is served by driving to your pit stall. A smaller than usual crew will be waiting for you..and you have to stop until the guy with the lolipop flips it over for you to go. dave henrie
