IWCCCARS: brickyrd.zip errata

To all concerned:

I need to apologize on behalf of the IWCCCARS team for distributing
BRICKYRD.ZIP, which was the Indianapolis Motor Speedway converted for
NASCAR Racing.  In my personal eagerness to provide all of you the
chance to race Indy, I completely spaced on the fact that the Indy
track is separately licensed for use with IndyCar Racing v.1;
distribution of the converted track is in violation of copyrights held
by Papyrus and the Indianapolis Motor Speedway.  I removed the file
after about 2 hours of being uploaded, but at the cost of about 7,000
hits to the file. :-(

I have spoken to Rick Genter explaining my error, and Papyrus
understands the situation.  To those looking for BRICKYRD.ZIP, it's
not going to be distributed from our site; however, if you own Indy
for IndyCar Racing v.1, you can convert it yourselves using the
ICR2NAS conversion utility available from The Pits.

Again, my deepest apologies to Papyrus and to you all in this
misunderstanding.

With that said, where the H_ can I get it now?
