Drag your left foot and the vehicle turns left. Just make sure you have some thick shoes before trying this.
 
Yea, what was the deal with the pits during our 40 lap practice? I pulled into the pits four laps in a row and just got a drive through, wouldn't give me tires or fuel. I even got the tire/fuel selection screen, but my car just kept going. Is there something I'm missing about the pit entry at Indy, or is it just a weird glitch?
 
Is it based on entry speed, or maybe entry angle? Maybe they are actually enforcing the pit road commitment lines on tracks?

And there's me hoping to keep that secret :grumpy:
 
I've entered pits plenty of times, I would like to think I know how to do it. I tried slowing down earlier, even hit pause at one point and let AI drive it in, I even ran one full lap at 40mph keeping it completely off the track using the pit lane the entire distance. I sure hope that doesn't happen during the race.
 
Since you tried absolutely everything, and even had the pit menu appear, I'd say it was just a glitch in that race.
 
Oh-oh guys, we may be in trouble with our tire/fuel stratagies this weekend. I just received some spy photos from the Team Red Bull secret testing facility.

Good thing Ford has gotten hold of the X2011 then, our drivers will be the ones that make those drinks for you (and themselves) before you finish.
 
I'd like to get some laps in this evening, but I'm stuck at work for about another hour and a half. :(

Forever



Sorry, I've always preferred Chevy over any other brand :lol:
 
Worked with Jakob a little last night and also verified that I AM capable of entering the pits during race... :)
 
I'll be on reserve for this weekend, just tell me what car I need at the time 👍

It looks like most of the full time drivers should be in place. If so, we will be looking to put a third car on track for Red Bull and Stewart-Ganassi. It would be a good idea to have an extra #14, #42, or #83 ready to go for this weekend, if possible.

Okay mate, just thought I'd let you know in advance. Thanks for the heads up 👍
 
I don't think there is a noticeable difference between the '10 and '11 #42 car, so the 2010 # 14 would make the best 3rd car for Stewart-Ganassi team, of possible. The '10 #14 is all red, where the '11 has the rear quarters in black.
 
If there's a Disconnect at Race Start...can we wait till that driver (dowhat) gets back in? Would help knowing that I won't be the only Red Bull out there, even if we have a third driver. Just want my guy on track winning with me.
 
Once the race starts at the scheduled time, the race starts. Disconnects are treated like mechanical failures. Unfortunately, a driver that blows an engine on lap one doesn't get to grab a backup car and have the race restarted. Make sure you have an extra driver starting the race if you're worried about your primary driver's connection.
 
Probably. Will be in a race for another league tonight around 8pm though.
