NASCAR: Dirt To Daytona - Car Damage and Malfunctions

Car Damage and Malfunctions

During a race, the car will have some damage. If that's the case, the colors are shown below:

  • No Damage: White
  • Light Damage: Green
  • Medium Damage: Yellow
  • Heavy Damage: Orange
  • Extreme Damage: Red

Also, you may have some malfunctions and other damages during the race. Some of these will be losing your power steering and getting debris stuck on your radiator .

Power Steering: The Power Steering is used to make steering the car much easier. When it malfunctions, the car feels very stiff and hard to control. But on superspeedways like Talladega and Daytona, it isn't a big deal

Debris stuck on the Radiator: When you get debris stuck in your radiator, it increases the Radiator damage from 0% to 10%.

Brake Failure: The break failure is nothing really important to worry about, but it will be a lot harder to stop your car in case of entering the pits and colliding with walls.

Engine Running Rough: This malfunction is a randomized function that only happens on tracks from 1.5 miles to 2.66 miles.

Clutch Failure: When this happens, the car stops accelerating and comes to a stop. The gears go from 4 to 3 then 2 to 1 then N. It will be at N gear at 60 mph . At this speed, the only worry is getting back to the pits to get a new clutch for your truck or cup car.

Famous quotes containing the words car and/or damage:

    When a man opens the car door for his wife, it’s either a new car or a new wife.
    Prince Philip (b. 1921)

    I learned early to understand that there is no such condition in human affairs as absolute truth. There is only truth as people see it, and truth, even in fact, may be kaleidoscopic in its variety. The damage such perception did to me I have felt ever since ... I could never belong entirely to one side of any question.
    Pearl S. Buck (1892–1973)
