ICR - Dominic Dobson

While racing in New Hampshire, I was happily in first pace some where around lap 5 when all of a sudden I saw a car go flying by me at what appeared to be about 250mph. When I watched the replay Dobson (#17) appeared just to jump from one side of the front stretch to the other, consequently passing about 15 cars in the process. I would have thought that this was just a minor bug, but it happened twice more. I was wondering if anyone else out there has had that problem, and if so, how do you fix it? --Mark Hofmann

Well, I haven't had it happen to an AI car, but I sure have had it happen to ME... I turned a 1:21.504 sec lap at Australia the other day, which is about 7 seconds faster than the world internet record, simply by being teleported from the exit of turn6 to the exit of turn 12 in the space of ONE frame in the replay (ie < 1/15th sec). I bounced all over (damage off) and got stuck in the wall for a while and STILL beat the world record by 6+ seconds! I've also had a similar problem at Long Beach, where I got teleported from somewhere about halfway down the front straight to a couple of feet from the end - where I landed at full speed, around 155mph. I crashed and spun something like six times! -- Brian Wong Product Marketing Engineering

I had a similar problem in NASCAR. When playing linked up over a null modem if one player e***d the race/pracitce/qualifying session to change the setups etc them the remaining players car shoots forwards at high velocity. Once we figured it out we had an excellent time in the pitlane i.e. I exit session, friends car destroys all other cars in the pit lane. spooky but ture. Could be a bug they've transplanted from ICR?
