GP500 not sold in America?

I've just noticed that the Microprose homepage says that GP500 is not
for sale in the US.

What on Earth for?

GP500 not sold in America?

Since I can, this'll be a reply to both of your messages.  GP500 will be
sold in the US but at a later time.  For now if you really want it, and
it's a good thing to get it cause it kicks ass, get it on the web.  Me
and plenty other people who got GP500 via mail order would recomend
www.interactcd.com.  Fast and fair shipping prices.  About tweeks, there
is a '99 SBK bike patch (skins, sounds and a tweeked physics system) and
there is also a 2000 GP500 bike set.  Both which are very well done.
Tracks though are almost impossiable to create for one simple reason.
All tracks and models were designed with softimage 3d, a few hundred
dollar profesional program.  And on top of the model is a code, for AI
lines, check points, etc.  So it's not totaly impossiable, but don't
expect any one to take their time to do it.  Hope this answers your
questions.

I bought at
    http://www.ebworld.com/
it reached me in a few days, and price was reasonable, even though
imported from UK.

Well, I now found they do not have this anymore... Sorry.

But you can find it 3 shops from Yahoo! shoppoing. Good Luck!
