Is it possible to total a car!?

[iLex]

Yesterday I took the team NFS AWD Scion for a spin around the Hockenheimring in the time attack challenge. I was pushing the car hard and somewhere in the second lap I glided out of a corner, hit the grass sideways and flipped over the car.

The result:

Yes, you see it driving in this picture, because although the wings, back, nose and right front wheel had been ripped off, the game thought this car to be in good shape to finish the race.
So I took the now 3WD AWD Scion for another two laps around Hockenheim. Steering was terrible, the car wasn't capable of any mentionable speeds and laptimes were terrible, but ultimately I won because of my first lap

Nevertheless I was wondering what one has to do to get a DNF... I have damage set to full (and there definately was mechanical damage after this crash). Is the whole DNF thing a myth?

One way i managed to DNF was with a blown engine in the corvette loaner car lol, but i was sitting on a corner for about a minute doing burnouts until it blew.

Lose your drive wheels like I did here and you won'tbe able to go anywhere

 

[paulpg87]

only with blown engine, even if you lose wheels it's not dnf, you can simply push select and you got back your wheels or you can go without wheels but there is no dnf.

Same here man.

When i use to own this game i blew my engine a couple of times and the race was over.

Wreck my car and lose a wheel and within a few seconds my car is back and ready to go.

Turn the full damage on.

Reset the car and try to drive it to the finish line. If you can

It's funny to drive with a shattered windshield...it happens all the time!

I have hit a wall and with what it said was 95 G's and that ended the race and totaled the car.

Ya, I don't get it either. Do these guys only have one game in their library at a time? Unless a game is complete crap, I keep all my racing titles - I like to rotate for something different.

What, you got rid of your game. No wonder I didn't see you in autolog anymore. What happened, you got tired of it.

For the original post, there were plenty of times I totaled my ride. Most on purpose but a few by really pushing her. I love this game. I haven't had much time to play though. Waiting on the psn to come back up, I got involved in home projects.

 

[KatRyder]

Your right, it may have been Dirt 3.

I was wondering as well.

There were time I finally beat and StarFire didnt beat them back. Now I realize he didnt....not couldnt lol. Still owns most 1st places in my autolog.

 

[shoeface33]

If it says G then thats grid. I hate crashing then starting to drive again, get going and then having my car reset and loose about 10 places :/

On an unrelated note i hit 250G crashing on grid at 260moh and the end of the mulsanne straight in le mans. I think i died
