strange pitcrew problem

No idea if someone had this strange pitcrew and car behaviour already: on a certain track (Rafaela by maxi) the cars of the first box in the pitlane come back after their run, the pitcrew puts them back into the box and afterwards they stand still, the car rotates its wheels producing smoke and the backfire is permanently on. This lasts until the session is over.
Anyone could tell me in which file this behaviour should be stored and how to solve??? It cannot be the anim.wad because it only occurs on this special track...
Hopefully somebody is out there to help

If i remember right it's a problem related to 1st gear ratio in track magic files. Try modifing to 25 or something like this

Grazie Samuele!
Unfortunately it didn't change anything to the better
Could it be that the wrong choreography is located in the *.col or *.bin files of the track?

I also had this problem a few times already. It occured at Estoril and even at original 2001 Hungaroring. But it only happens sometimes, not often.

#TGF1Driver2: Ain't that strange?

#32BOBO32: Caro Samuele, you might not believe it but when I tried out a wet qualifying the bug was gone... so apparently it only occurs in dry conditions. So what could cause this phenomen?
I'm pretty sure you're right with the MD as the source of it but I have no idea what parameter in the MD could produce this annoying behaviour...
Hopefully some MD expert like klausfeldmann has an idea!?

Try modifing the 1st gear value for all the four scenarios (CC dry & wet + Player dry & wet)

I had a weird pit problem where all the cars would come back in after their run then just sit in the middle of the pitlane. I traced it to V6Turbo.cap which is in the post 2014 CSM carsets: Data\Patch. After removing/renaming that file it hasn't done it since. It may just have been a coincidence, or it might be because I just keep the original sounds. I'm not a big fan of the V6 sounds.

1- At the Monaco track, cars stopped at a pit-stop (team 11) and stood with their wheels spinning until they were pushed from behind.
The problem was in the too short length of the sectors in front of the team 11 box. After a slight correction of the corresponding sectors in the DAT
the problem is gone.
2- Also the reason may be in too small TRACK GRIP value (line 42 in MD3).

Thank you for taking care of my problem. I've absolutely no idea how to edit a dat-file. So please could you have look on the enclosed file in question and correct it?

I'll try. I'll send it in a few hours.

Oh, thank you
