Hello all,

I am happy to notice the new 1.3.5 version and play with it.

Note however, I observe a strange behavior of cars (in general) that I
found a little bit annoying (not specific to 1.3.5 version) :

When a car skids by rolling on the side track (grass), it begins to skid in
every direction and finally systematically turns backwards (in the
opposite direction
of the race).
The fact taht a car skids on the grass sounds rather normal to me, but why
is never occasionally ends up facing the track direction?

Is there an algorithm somewhere that always moves the car in reverse when
the car is doing a few slew round ?

best regards
(I'm posting this comment / question, but I appreciate this software: I play it
regularly)
