"the dot"

[Belda_Da_Hun]

one time when i was racing a race on super speedway. The was i think about 20 laps in the race. i was on my tenth lap and i noticed a yellow dot slowly moving down the screen. It was in the top righthand coner on the screen. I was like wtf is that? I kept 1 eye on the road and another on the strange dot. The dot begame to move down the screen and towards the track radar thing. by the time i got on on 12th lap the dot joined in with the other dots on the track radar.
Has this happend to anyone else? I don't know what it was or why i happend. I don't know it it was another that decided to join the race late or what but it did freak me out for a second.

now that is weird. i know u can exit some tracks and then your dot moves away from the track on the screen but i have never heard of AI cars doing it. probably woke up late and had to join the race in progress.

I've heard of AI cars breaking out of tracks... I don't know who, but I know someone at GTP mentioned long ago that they saw a Panoz Esperante break out.

There was probably a dog driving and was chasing a squirrel ...

Or some sort of car maybe. That would be weird...did you see when it came into the race?

 

[Belda_Da_Hun]
