Race Start screen Easter Egg

[Bobtehblob]

I noticed this the a couple weeks ago but never bothered to post it until now. But most times I load up the race to the start screen. Where it has the starting grid,race and track info, driving options etc. That if the cars are lined up on the grid and perform start then you can control your car.

As I use a DS3 and I have R2 for throttle and L2 for brake then I can accelerate and drive my off the line. Unfortunately the screen changes view usually and within a few seconds I can feel a thud coming through the controller of me hitting something. You can also change gears and steer the car as well.

But either way it's just a cool little Easter egg I'd though I would share

online my screen has a tendancy to stay blank as the race starts and not let me see whats going on for a few seconds as i try to guess my way round the first bend.

managed to start in 9th and end up in 2nd after a bend without seeing where i was going!

Yeah I noticed this little "easter egg" when my DFGT started doing its own thing while sitting on this screen.

I just noticed this with my DFGT and almost freaked out and posted a thread. Good thing I searched. I thought it was so cool. I sat there and watched my car rolling and it started to drift one way and I was like "hey maybe I can move the wheel, lo and behold, you can! Pretty cool.

That explains why my PWTS will move on its own before a race. I'll have to mess with this now. Thanks for the info

So that's why my G27 keep turning on its own. Awesome.
