N3: AI Bug?

3 posts by 3 people · 09 Dec 1999 - 09 Dec 1999

Has anyone noticed the AI at South Boston? I was doing a 300 lapper, and passing lapped traffic, but then I came across two cars, one low, the other high, about a car length ahead. They stayed like that for 80 laps, impossible to pass (I tried everything) and I'd probably still be there now if I hadn't given one of them a little 'love tap'...Happened again a bit later on in the same race, but I was prepared for it, and nudged 'em after 6 or so!!!

Colin, it's called short track super glue. It's as if the inside car is still unsure he he want to make the pass or not... Try passing on outside, bumping the car on the high groove so that it moves faster. That way, there's less chance that you will wreck. If that doesn't work after a few laps, "insist" a little more, like the Intimiditor or me in DTR ;) Philster
