While it was at it, it executed my pitstop strategy. I was in the middle three wide and got tapped on the right pushing me into the car on the left so not sure why it penalised me.

So we just had a fun run tonight, and we'll do the race for real back at here at Riverside next week (Aug 8 ).

Sounds like another bug in the game, I got it with a cutting track warning when I was slammed into and run off the road at the first corner and then again when another car ran wide into me on the exit of the hairpin at the bottom of the hill. Whilst I've got no problem with the game policing people doing the wrong thing, it needs to get it right more often before I will have any confidence in it.

One is that the long winding eases are essentially single file, being so fast with really only one line through there. Also, the slow hairpin caught a few people out, not realising how hard people were braking in front of them there.

Was having a post race chat with RussG this morning (work at the same place), had me thinking, Wally do you run the * number of contacts setting enabled? I think there is the option to kick or send to pits.If so then it's the first time I've actually seen it work!If not then yes something weird going on there...

You should view it as a warning for going off-track. The app does not calculate whether you gained an advantage or not by going off track Logged Wally Administrator Hero Member Posts: 11033 Karma: 152 AC Admin Re: S18R2: Riverside Spike « Reply #40 on: August 02, 2017, 10:46:49 AM » Quote from: Rolz on August 02, 2017, 09:03:39 AMQuote from: Joe on August 01, 2017, 09:26:32 PMNever seen that but the game threw me back to the pits and gave me a warning for dangerous driving.

I've never changed that value, so it probably just falls back to some default value. I'll check it out and disable it. Good pickup.

He just uses the data he has available to him to know when you are off track. It also takes into account speed so if you re-renter slower than you went off it won't count as a cut. But sure you can crash spin off and back on and it counts as a cut but that's why you get 3 chances before the penalty is applied.
