I'm with you on this. Charlotte is waaaay too wide, it feels like driving at California almost. Kinda lame.

Charlotte does seem too wide. Fun track to drive though! I still cant believe they put the pits on the wrong side of pit road at Watkins Glen!

This was because they would have had to recapture animations as well as remodel all 43 cars to put the fuel tank on the other side among other things. Not a big deal, imo. I can life with that.

That makes sense... either way Im enjoying this game a ton.
Be glad when they fix the caution issues and pit road ai. Hard to run a long race with those issues. Ive been in the paint both and racing short online races more than anything anyway.

More updates to Dave's checklist / blog on fixes. We'll see what happens whenever we get the patch. IF the major issues get fixed, I'm going to give mad props to the development team. One of my clients is a major retailer so I know that the marketing / sales team sometimes drives deadlines (e.g., release dates) and there are times when things don't get done right because the deadline has been established but from a technology / support standpoint, it's an unreasonable deadline. Let's hope that these guys have the ability to fix these things.

Does anybody know how to save videos? There is a slot for them in the "Race Media" portion of the game but I cannot figure out how to save them.

Here's another scheme I made last night and today. Again, it's kind of plain, but I'm not completely confident in my abilities on the paint booth yet.







I also have tail-lights on the rears of the cars now, and the ones I have were surprisingly easy to make.

Nice. Like the car.
