I guess it must be a bug in icr2. I lead the race, the yellow flag comes out, i got 10 gal. of fuel left and go in to the pit for a refuling,during my pit 10 other ai cars enter the pit, pits in front of me, im done with my stop, so i roll out of the pits and out on the track, of course i pass the other ai`s standing in the pit, but suddenly im told to " stay behind car nr. 8", i do, and find myself in P.11. This sucks papyrus!!! Fix it fast!!!

Is the following legal in real ICR: I'm doing the pace lap in Australia (I don't think the track matters) when all the cars are lined up side by side. The cars that are lined up on the other side and qualified slower than I seem to just go ahead of me at random. In another words, they don't stay behind me. When the green flag drops, I'm actually starting a few positions back. Alex
said... Yes, it's legal. In "real" IndyCar, as the cars race to the start/finish line for the green flag, the race steward checks to see if only the first row of the grid is lined up fairly evenly. If it is, he'll drop the green. -- +--------------------------+--------------------------------+ | G.

: Is the following legal in real ICR: : I'm doing the pace lap in Australia (I don't think the track matters) : when all the cars are lined up side by side. The cars that are lined : up on the other side and qualified slower than I seem to just go : ahead of me at random. In another words, they don't stay behind : me. When the green flag drops, I'm actually starting a few positions : back. In the real world it is the starter's job to make sure that the cars are lined up correctly before he (or she) drops the green flag. Technically the pace lap is a "yellow flag" lap and the same rules apply (no passing). Papyrus has not modelled this correctly. It may just be a programming nightmare. It is also why they probably didn't include double file re-starts in NASCAR. However, just don't lag behind on the pace lap and only 1 or 2 cars might get the jump on you. BUT, until Papyrus's programmers can come up with away to prevent the AI cars from stopping on a dime (more like a flea) just before the green drops we're screwed. I have had to turn off the pace lap option for this very reason. It just doesn't work. Speaking of pace laps and yellow laps, does anyone out there have a secret on how to keep the tire temps up? -- **************************** Michael E.
