Why do people call this a bug? How many times have you seen a car stick to the wall at Darlington? A bunch! It's a feature that imitates reality...

When you have an object sliding into an object at 200 mph there tends to be a lot of heat and friction. This causing a lot of "sticking" - James Wohlever Techware Motorsports http://techware.4mg.com/

Heh! Probably for the same reason people say GP2 has "canned spins". Some folks have no talent and/or patience so they start making excuses. >Why do people call this a bug? >>

Ever notice when you turn the wheel, the tires stick out a bit. If the car is up against the wall, the tires can't turn left/right. I don't think heat has much to do with it.
