Look, if there is a thread about this already im sorry.
Playing the 200mi LS endurance event today using the Formula GT, the cars tires wear so easily i needed the pits after 9 laps. I accidentally enter the pit road so my front wing crashed into the barrier.
And the pit window came on the screen, then the car reset with the pit window gone but the arrow still there, I guessed and pressed okay and the arrow was gone. The car pulls into the pits and the pit crew does nothing, i wait for 2min until I decided that it was stuck.
This would have really sucked if I was a lot further in the endurance race and it needs to be corrected.
 
This happened to me as well; I tried to still change the amount of fuel to put in but I can't remember if it worked, it didn't freeze though.
I also got the same sort of thing in a NASCAR race at Daytona when the fool decided not to hit the invisible wall but go across the grass into the other drivers whilst still asking me how much fuel I wanted.
 
This happens when people come flying into the pits much too fast. Laguna has a sharp 90 degree turn so you need to slow down for it.
 
Happened to me several times. Sometimes I would just burst into the pit w/o stopping and once the car smashes into the pit walls, it resets the car to the scripted pitting sequence and the window that lets you pick what's being changed doesn't pop up. Instead the cursor assumes the window is there, reacting normally. So to prevent it you have to slow down before entering into pits, esp. Laguna Seca's. As like heinz said, it has a tight and sharp 90 degree entrance.
 
I've also been hit with this a few times. :(
 
I got this last week during an online race in Laguna, glad it was just qualifying when it happened. However, I was able to switch tires properly because even though the menu was invisible, I knew exactly what to do to switch for softs :lol:
 
Yeah it happens even when you slow down to a crawl. And the menu works, it's just not visible.

I was trying the LS 200mile and After the first stint realised the car I'd chosen was too dominant and it would be a boring race. I figured that I'd change to a poorer grip tyre, make it a little interesting. But the at pit entry this happened and I wasn't able to select a different tyre.
 
One time I was drifting at Tsukuba and lost control of my car and entered the pit backwards. Next thing I know, I have completely lost control as the game took control of the car. This happened to me online in a drift room so everybody was clowning me saying that why am I racing drifters around the track... then I told them that I can't control the car.
