I've had a glitch in almost every race where my car explodes for no reason (ie. I didn't hit anything or wasn't crushed/run over) and as soon as it respawns it explodes again, for the whole race. The race never finishes because it even keeps exploding after it has passed the finish line.

It has happened to the AI cars as well. What causes this?

I'm using Windows 10
I7 processor
GTX980 graphics card
8GB RAM

I'm having the same problem.

I haven't changed any settings except for controls.

Windows 10 Home
i7-4790k
GTX 1080
16GB RAM

Edit: Turning off Double Buffering in the DOSBox Configurator's Advanced Settings seems to fix it for me. I've been able to finish two single-player championships without a single undeserved explosion.

Same story. I've remapped conrols for second player, changed resolution to 800*600, and cars start exploding randomly during race.

Microsoft Surface Pro 2
Windows 10 Pro
Intel i5-4200U
Intel HD Graphics
4Gb RAM

Same on OSX 10.11.6 on MBP 2015

Double buffering was never on for me, so sadly that didn't help

Same Problem here

Win10 Pro
i7
Gtx 1070
16 gbram

Getting the same problem here.

Win 10 Pro
i7-3570K
GTX 970
8GB RAM

Not sure what use the specs would be though cause the game runs in DOSBox

Same problem here. Could this be a form of copy protection that gets triggered for some reason?

I changed that setting and I was able to complete a championship without the cars exploding, so I guess that worked.

Thanks.

This worked for me too. Thanks.

Thank you! That worked for me too!

It didn't help me at all... :(

For everyone who is not great with hardware (or software, who just play games and can fix simple stuff, but don't understand regedit etc). Can you translate that into simple instructions?
