Note: the first 12 extra 0-s actually don't cause problems, only when the OS or the lib checks for buffer overflows, because you don't use the lastSlash painter anymore and you set i to 0 anyway. and after that there is empty space on the stack so maybe it is never a problem, only when checked? I'm not 100% sure abut the last statement. On many systems, the stack grows downward, so overflowing the buffer could corrupt previous stack frames. How much damage this actually does depends on how the compiler/optimizer...

Here is another crash: torcs-bin: CarSoundData.cpp:103: void CarSoundData::update(tCarElt*): Assertion `car->index == eng_pri.id' failed.

This might be related: I got this assertion error, which was followed by a segfault in openal. torcs-bin: ssg.h:309: void ssgBase::deRef(): Assertion `refc > 0' failed. double free or corruption (out)

It seems random to me as it happens on maybe one out of five races. I always do the same race with car4-trb1 in a non-championship race on CG Track 3 with all trb1 opponents, so I wouldn't really be able to say whether it is dependent on the car or track. (Sorry for the lack of diversity.) But it doesn't seem to matter how far into the race I am or where on the track I am. Though IIRC, I also got a crash from a SIGABRT, but I wasn't able to get the stack trace at that time, so potentially there are...
