Hey,
What is the most popular openwheel racing sim. (eg, indycar, f1) I have
played ICR2 and original GrandPrix, however this has been a few years back.
I currently race N2003 and would like to get back into openwheel sims.

Thanks,
Lambone

In the US, where the heck do you find this game?  I've looked everywhere
that I have access to, both in stores and online, and nooone seems to have
it anymore, its listed as out of stock /discontinued at every place I have
seen.

Try CompUSA.  I just checked their page and there was one store with it
local to me.

I got mine about a month ago in the bargain bin at a store chain
called London *** (Canada only). :-)

I tried 3 different Best Buy's, and 2 Circuit City's, nada...more would
require 45 mile plus radius from my house

Wow - where do you live?  Maybe I can buy it for you and ship it, and you pay
me back...

I checked Chips n Bits, Go Gamer and EB online for you and none of
them have it either. Weird, considering that I can find EA's F1 2000
available but not F1 Challenge '99-02'.

That is the exact same results I have had.  Noone has it here in NE Ohio.
