    Hi all and many thanks for last nights update !

    Every other update the Caterham Superlight gets bugged out and breaks.

    In practise leaving the pit lane, or race either rolling start of standing start, the car brakes heavily as soon as the game gives you manual control. The car spins a bit, then you apply gas and you can’t move more than a yard at a time or ever get out of first gear, because the brakes are jammed tight.

    Car was fine last weekend and it’s one of my favourites currently in the sim. I’m not having this issue with any other car that I’ve played with this morning.

    Please please can you look into and fix. This car is / was my weekend warm up car.

    Thank you

    I've just played the Superlight in practice and then a race and it worked ok, apart from it trying to crash when manual control was given at the end of the pitlane, but I think that is common to many cars.

    I’ve just this moment after reading your reply, tried the Superlight at my two favourite tracks and it’s working normally again in both practise and with different race start types. That’s really weird how it’s stopped hammering the brakes on automatically.

    Thanks for replying, it made me re try and now I have the awesome Caterham back for the weekend.

    Just tried the Superlight at Velo Citta and no problems for me. First time I have tried that track though and glad I did. Lovely flowing track with lots of elevation changes. I stopped at the top of the hill and stood up (in VR) to have a look around.

    Can't comment as I never let AI to take control in PIT, it sound too much...artificial to me (if it rely to that).

    Yeah great point, because there is nothing artificial about driving a race car in a sim rig, in my bedroom, with pretend steering wheels, pedals, shifters and handbrake producing artificial FFB, with a bucket seat twenty cm’s above my carpet, whilst driving in VR with a headset covering my eyes, feeling zero G forces in a pc computer game racing against artificial intelligence cars. Thank goodness for that manual pit limiter button, all of a sudden all of the above is forgotten and it feels so natural and real ?
