Don't really know what's going on with my game right now... I was going to take pics of my car at watkins glen, but the track wouldn't load. Any other track I've tried has loaded just fine but not Watkins glen. Any ideas? Btw my son took my game out the other day and added a few new scratches. Just wondering if anyone else has had this happen to only one track? I haven't had that issue with a ntg game but they are the only games I have for playstation. I have had the same thing happen with xbox games. Certain maps that no longer load on Halo or parts of the city that cause my game to crash in GTA. Have you tried anything to fix the scratches? I used toothpaste or car wax before and it helped. |

Car wax? I've never heard of that. How do you use it? Just use it as directed on the bottle?

I've tried both of these ideas to no avail... Would it be acceptable to take pictures at a different track if I'm unable to resolve this?

It's obviously not like those who may forget what track they're supposed to be at. Your game physically cannot do it so it's not your fault.  |

I think Vader's even taken pictures directly from the race shop for some races. I wouldn't have a problem with it. You might even be able to mimic some tracks; say if Charlotte Night didn't work, maybe take them at Texas Night, since the tracks and lighting are pretty much the same. Also, I've heard a few people say banana/banana peels work in fixing scratches. I've never tried it, never needed to, but it's worth a shot. In that case, put the disc on a record player, might get the audio from it! Hahaha! |

If you can not get the Glen to work of course you can take pics at another track. Many of the tracks have road courses, you might be able to find a track with a suitable spot in side the turns to take road course like pictures.

Loudon and Homestead both have really nice road courses inside the turns. You should be able to get good pics there. |

It makes for some good pictures if you angle it right |

BSR FUTURE UNSURE
Budweiser announced today that it will not be resigning with the BSR #6 team for 2016. Sighting a lack of performance as the main reason to sever ties with the 6 team.
714 talked to the media at Watkins Glen this weekend. "You know its been a tough year. Bud expects wins, I wasn't able to deliver that for them. Not much we can do this late in the season but regroup, work on 2016 and try to bring stronger cars to the track each week."
"I am trying to get a partner to buy into the team to help us turn the performance around for next year. Its just to early to say if it will be a 50/50 deal or possibly selling the team entirely and just being a painter instead of a painter/owner"
"Not having a teammate to help give me feedback before race weekends has really hurt me this year. I just need a fresh set of eyes to be competitive again"
"I hope to have something solid to announce at Richmond in a few weeks so as we head into the off season we are ready to focus 100% on 2016, running top 3-5 and getting a few wins under our belts is our goal"

Since we're all doing team news..
Dingerfan has announced that HSBC will not be joining the team in 2016, citing that just like everything else based out of Western New York, they have gone separate ways.
Also, next year's number will have a 1 in it
