Geeze! Remind me to NEVER try to contribute anything  to this group!
I guess I don't understand the mind-set against what Tom is trying to
do.

He offers to put a little more fun into sim-racing and he gets raked
over the coals!

My email is one the way Tom.  I really got to liking Sears Point a
couple of weeks ago when Nascar ran there, and I put a gazillion laps
on it practicing for my OSCAR Outlaw and Flashpoint Pro race and would
appreciate having the newest version to run on.

Thanks for doing that for us...

   yeah but...
There's road Atlanta for SCGT, for GPL, for Nascar Heat...I like Road
Atlanta...but it's available in fairly current configurations.  Mid Ohio is
soooo much better than the old ICR2 conversions that it DESERVES somebody
building it.

Feb 2003 or so.  You can follow the progress at www.gplpp.com

Jim,

My post was not a "rake over the coals".   It was just a "nudge" at Tom,
hence the  ( ;P ).   He understood.

Thanks for enlightening me.  It's hard to tell, sometimes.  

I apologize to you, sir.
