I've seen the first 2 happen before. I've never seen the last one happen though.

I've posted this before but Meh. I was driving my Escudo on Test Course. Doing that Turbo Car Cup one for some quick easy money. It was lap 2/3 Some ahole I can't remember who hit me into the wall. I went through it into total darkness. Everything went black. All I could see was my car. I hit the accelerator and it went upto 659kph. I had to exit and restart. Very, very :odd:
 
"Car merging."

Nothing too unusual, but interesting to see a series of screens that show it actually happening. Using the RX-7 LM in the GT300 series is overkill, but I did it the first time (figured cars with 591hp might show up), so I'll let it slide...
 
had it happen to me too. i was in my Superbird, goin a steady 188mph on the test course when this jag who was draftin me comes up and casuallycuts right through my car! :eek: the jag was swallowed whole by my car and then the speed climbed to nearly 205mph. the jag just spat me off and went chuggin along 190mph and threw me back to only 140 mph. :grumpy:
 
My friend told me that happened to him during an enduro so he restarted the race. BTW...the 3rd picture looks really funny
 
I was racing in the Route 5 Clubman race of GT1, and at the very end of the race I got hit by the Toyota MR2 as I did a power-slide across the finish line. Somehow, the MR2 wound up flying 40 feet in the air, and then it landed (perfectly without a scratch, of course). I have this replay saved on a memory card, too.
 
GT40 MKII
:lol: those are funny

Yeah, it's funny to see that happen with a high technology system like a playstation. Kinda reminds me of playing Tank on the old Atari 2600 when if you shot the other person's tank sometimes it would wind up on the other side of the screen! :)
 
I was racing on Red Rock the other day with my GT-One '99 race car. I was going around the banking and at the middle of the turn. I find the Venturi racer stick front first. So I go around. Its the last lap. He is still there. so I smack him and he goes flying out of the track. Anyone else done this or seen this?
 
I've bounced off a few cars when I race as a Mini Cooper, but most of my funny stories involve me impacting walls at high speed.
Like the one time I clipped the far wall in the first corner at Red Rock while going 200+ mph in a Jaguar XJ220GT...I don't even know how many times I rotated. Five? Six? Regardless, I wiped out completely, and my buddy whizzed by in a Toyota GT-ONE, also doing 200+ mph...
...and also hitting the wall, doing numerous spins.
Regardless, I won. ;)
 
Yeah, doing the old power-slide across the finish line at tthe end of a race never gets old, especially if you get hit by the other 5 cars (sometimes, they all manage to get a good smack!)
