I'm with Papi--I can live with some niggles, but this pit bug is a game-breaker. If this bug constantly pushes you back, it constantly negates any progress you've achieved on the track. And if so, then what's the point of racing?

I can confirm this as well for me, it seems as though you go into slow motion when you pit but everyone else is still going full speed, so in essence at 15 second pit stop for you may seem like a 30-45 second pit stop in the game, so you fall back further than you should, this especially stinks during green flag pit stops. I've just avoided doing longer races for now, hopefully they fix this soon, I'm not playing this game much until most of the major bugs are fixed.

Anyone know what exactly this is referring to? What happens when one of the celebrates?

My guess is at least for Bill Elliot they didn't have to bother coding a winning celebration since it's highly unlikely he'll do it again in the Sprint Cup series

/sorry

Take this FWIW, but someone posted on their forums "I talked to Dave about this and he said everytime he raced that this issue never occured... but with some of the fixes they've done, it might have solved itself coincidentally."

So I guess we'll see.

Well he's in his 50s and drives junk that I doubt anyone else could hardly make the race in. What does he care at this point?

Also, the online on this game can go screw itself. Whoever the clowns are that are playing and driving backwards and turning Bristol in to a demo derby can die in a fire for all I care. This is what's wrong with console online gaming. Everyone playing is a 5 year old moron that needs to be bitch slapped.

Since neither wins, they celebrate by taking parts of their car and selling it on Ebay. They fixed this by not allowing either one of them to remove any of the parts when and if they ever get to victory row.

Hope that helps clear up a few things.

See this was the one thing that I brought to everyone's attention before the game was released. How they did not see this coming is beyond me.

So, I've been kind of watching this game, any word if they've changed to the new cars yet?
