Yes they will. Of the 4 cautions caused in my 1st Daytona race, 3 of them were all AI caused, but in a realistic fashion.

The only customizing I have seen so far, is the ability to take the draft wake off. I have found no options to clear the screen or change the HUD in any way.

Now, have you had a chance to see how these cautions occured? IE - Are the CPU cautions realistic (Two cars barely touching and losing it, getting loose gradually going into a corner) or are they over the top as I've seen it done in previous EA efforts? IE - Do AI cars just occasionally spin around for no apparent reason, causing carnage?

Yep...the AI causes them in a well done, non-over the top type of way so far. They show you the whole wreck and how it happened, even if it's AI caused, and there were no phantom wrecks...or dumb spin-outs for no reason. All the wrecks have looked very legit so far.

The UI thing worries me but this almost seals it for me. I wonder if I'll be able to pick this up at Midnight somewhere.

I think it's safe to say this is going to be a awesome game! I can't wait to race online with guys. I am more SIM sytle of racing, it appears it has that aspect in the game. March 29th can't come fast enough

Thanks for all of the feedback, truly do appreciate it! Do the setups they give you drive well with good speed? Setups is always a main worry of mine. There's an option to force default setup, right?
