I hope I wasn't the cause of Richards end of the race.
Didn't feel any contact, though I might have gone a bit wide on corner entrance. That was the cause of sliding a bit due to unstability of the car under braking. I can't set the thing as I was able to in GTR2. So: not on purpose.
Later on I had a screen freeze for about 5 seconds. Only screen freeze, mind you cause the car was moving on. Felt when it went onto the sand and then into the wall.
Seems like I'll have to manually shut down processes - wasn't there some kind of program to do this, I think I had it on XP.
Anyways, GT2s are fun.
