Strange Laguna Seca bug.

I've been running some practice sessions at Laguna Seca. When you start you are given control just before the final corner and the braking markers on the right are all intact. Coming to complete the first lap, occasionally (although quite often) those same braking markers have been demolished by some unknown force (not me I assure you).

This doesn't happen always, but I'd say at least half the times I restarted this phenomenon occurred. It's quite annoying as it makes judging the braking for that final corner pretty tricky when you get round and find them strewn across the edge of the track.

Has anyone else noticed this?
 
Very strong wind from the excessive downforce on your car :D

This is why you need to have multiple reference points for every corner on a track. ONE will not cut it for competition. EVER.
 
It's the AI cars.
I've seen them knock over cones, markers, etc. on various tracks.

I assume his practice sessions don't include the AI.
 
I saw Bspec Bobs kids out there messing around, maybe they keep dumping them over :D

Yeah, I saw that too. In fact, I saw the markers go flying when I passed by, as if my car did it. I thought maybe I was driving too close to the right edge of the track, but the markers get knocked down even if I leave a huge margin. Strangely, this only happens with some cars. The Zonda "knocks down" the markers, but the Lotus Elise doesn't. Weird.
