Ya, I'm sure GP2 will have many more ways that ICR2 to make racecar
driving seem easy for those not really interested in a sim.
The question is, with all of it's bells and whistles, can GP2 still
match ICR2 in being a real sim? I'm hoping so.

F1GP's tramlines keeping the car on the racing line. If it's NSA, then
that's barely realistic either, and to complain about ICR2 being
uncontrolable when NSA steering is an order of magnitude harder than
ICR2 is a bit rich. And yes, I have raced F1GP for a season and a half
NSA, and was in the top 6 NSA hotlaps at most tracks on the Compuserve
league last season.

Are you really he? From your headers:

Do you know something no-one else does? Neither work, although I heard
ICR2 for Win95 has/will have IPX support.

From a beta version I can say that there is another helper (F7) that is called
throttle help. It more or less saves you from wicked oversteer. When I first
played GP2, I could not believe the amount of power the car actually has. You
actually have to feather the throttle out of 1st and 2nd gear corners or
around you go !!!
This is a fantastic sim and I totally recommend a wheel/pedel combo. The
engine sounds are unbelievable especially when you downshift and the frame
rate on my 686-100 is >25fps in VGA. Add cars and it slows it down (140%
occupancy) but still playable.

BTW are you seriously saying all F1 drivers are better than all
IndyCar drivers, if so I think you need to get a grip on reality.
I suggest you take this argument to rec.autos.sport.f1 and/or
rec.autos.sport.indy and don't waste our bandwidth .....

Cyrix chip i take it?
have you tried svga mode, if so how bad is it with all the
objects and rear textures turned off.

Oh, yeah, sure. Can you imagine Damon Hill in the traffic at Nazareth?
Now that is what I call laughable.

Are you really going to compare Damon Hill with Nigel Mansell? I
never liked the man, personally, but at least he knew how to overtake.
You'll see how "good" Damon is next year when he loses the ride at
Williams and has to drive a car that is more commensurate with his
driving abilities.

I used to be good at Test Drive on the Amiga but if I drove the same way
in real life I would die. Just because you can find a simulator driving
style which looks the same way that it does on TV it doesn't mean it is
the same thing. I haven't tried ICRII but ICRI had the most appalling
low speed tyre grip model I've ever seen. I don't care how bad my set up
was, I am never going to understeer off a track on a wide bend at 50mph
in real life. And no, the tyres weren't cold.
Chris.
