So, I'm on vacation and have been grinding out the B-Spec back home via Slingbox. Please excuse the crappy screencap. I set my crew off in the 24 Hour race at Le Mans yesterday. This morning (my last day of vacation) I woke up to my X2010 flying around the Circuit de la Sarthe..LITERALLY!

Screen%20shot%202010-12-30%20at%207.36.52%20AM.jpg


I mashed buttons for a few minutes but got no response from the game. :ouch: I waited for the car to circulate the track. He did. And, entered the pit. Unfortunately, he cruised right on thru and re-entered the track without taking on fuel, tires or doing a driver change. Or, as I had really hoped, would have ended the race!

At times you could see cones in the air, but, I never saw any other cars on the track map while waiting to get back around. And, since this is only the second time I've done the race, I'm not sure when the flying started. I know they did 497 laps. But, I don't know how many they would have typically done in the X2010.

Since the buttons didn't work, I had to restart the game and lost 24 hours .... @#$%! I did a quick search of the forum/youtube. But, I couldn't find anyone else who ran into this problem. Sucks to be me.
 
Awesome, the X2010 can fly, Adrian Newey is a genius! :D
 
How the hell did Bob manage that? :scared:

And I thought mine rolling over my Miata at Tsukuba was bad.
 
Everyone knows that Red Bull gives you wings ;).
 
Thats awesome! How do I make this happen?
 
This is awsome, the Red Bull can actually fly :lol:

If only this didn't happen during one of the 24 hour events.
 
Hey, Mark Webber must be driving. :D

Sorry, it's not funny.




Oh wait, yes it is. :D
 
I would've thought the race would've ended once every AI car crossed the line after 24hrs, because then you would have won. This is a really odd glitch...
 
Were the front and rear wings installed upside-down?
 
I guess he was trying to compete in the Red Bull air race at the same time! Bob is so full of win.
 
He's just cutting the corner a little bit... :)
 
Another reason for me not to start B-Spec. :lol:

lol. Good one. Appears that GT5 is showing up in the glitches category with all the updates. I am sure something conflicts with something else. No game is perfect though.
 
It looks like the cockpit of a airplane more than anything in that pic!
 
Too bad you couldn't save the replay, that would have been an interesting one to see for sure! Awesome pic though. Interesting that you still got tire wear in the air, Kaz may need to look into the physics there. Is your bob's name C. Kent by any chance :)
 
I hope that wont happen with me, Good luck doing it again!
 
I want to know how you were able to use your PS3 with the slingbox? And still navigate the PS3. I didnt know Slingbox could do this.
 
Wow that sucks man.
I'm on my 4th LeMans tour at the moment and so far I have been lucky. I did however witness a coming together just before the pit entrance which you don't want to miss as you have to refuel often with the X1.
 
This is a stupid glitch that can be easily reproduced in A-spec.

Basically what has happened is that your driver was either pushed into the pits or was avoiding someone and accidentally entered the pits. Thing is the X1 was going way too fast and blew right threw the pits. Welcome to the glitch, your car is now on auto pilot- will blow through your tires and gas and hold you at 49mph for the rest of the race.

Sucks it happened in a 24hr race but who cares, you were on vacation enjoying yourself I could think of 101 far worst things that could have happened to you.
