OK, I just have to share this. Was racing N4 at Daytona (if memory serves) and got caught in this massive wreck (not my fault!) and pile up where 3 cars flipped about 200 feet up into the air! So then I'm sitting in pit lane after the wreck and notice something in my rear view mirror that looks like a big airplane slowing flying over the track, as it passes over me I can begin to see it out the front windshield and low and behold, it's one of the cars hovering (spinning) at about 600-800 feet up in the air!! After watching the replay, a couple of other cars kind of got pushed down into the pavement and then all of a sudden they began spinning about 600-800 feet in altitude continuously around the track! If anybody wants me to email them the replay, let me know and I will. Quite entertaining! -Tim

You should see my "Pit Flip" replay where one strong jackman flips my car about 100 feet (scale) into the air and I end up over the pit wall in the garage area. This happened during a online Daytona race, granted it was pre-patch. At least I got to tour the garage area and get into Victory lane, LOL. Seems that using the "GPL Engine" for Nascar 4 has brought us the same "Not Coded for Internet" bugs. Would like to see any of these type of replays for laughs. Post them up somewhere. -- R.I.P. - William Joseph Dunlop OBE MBE 2/25/52 - 7/2/2000

Hmm, that's odd because the only car I have seen do that is... Terry Labonte! Tho his car was spinning in a vertical nose-down position, slowly wandering around the track and causing more wrecks... John DiFool
