I havent raced in races long enough for the lead pack to start lapping other racers, so I dont know. I will have to try racing a 300 lap race at daytona to test this out tommorrow.

Thats a great question redwing, but honestly I can't answer for lack of knowledge. I have had no real problems with cars that are slower, trying to block me.

Don't get me wrong, if their car is as good as yours, they don't slip up the track and say " there ya go human *******, go right on by!"

They definitely werent playing on very hard and legend assist settings.

The teamwork hookups do seem to be random, but I am paying attention to that to see if it changes as the season goes along.

maybe jeff is sick of jimmie winning lol

I have one question if anyone has some spare time to mess around with.

Going back to the lucky dog, do they say anything about it during the race? Example: the spotter telling you to catch a certain car as that is like a mini race in of itself.

So if anyone wants to drop a lap down and see what happens over the course of a fairly long race, I would appreciate it.

Thanks a lot guys, I've always been a huge fan of teamwork in NASCAR, but at the end of the day, you're trying to beat 42 other cars to the checkered flag anyway, right? NTG2011 got me to OS, but the community will keep me around. Thanks again guys.
