Well we will be lucky if we see the February issue here before May!  So any
clues to what Ed is on about would be greatly appreciated.

1976, Hunt vs Lauda and an interesting bit about a very quick Japanese car.

GPL2!

...after CART Racing 2 of course :)

Front cover says it all:

[1976] "Formula One's Greatest year"

Stories include:
"Hunt vs Lauda"
"McLaren vs Ferrari" (nice to see history repeat itself -eh!)
"America vs Japan" (nice story about the wonderful Penske PC4 and a few
unknow (atleast to me) Japanese cars that "starred" in '76 race)
"Tyrell vs convention" (the real reason why it had two too many)

And as a "little" bonus.... featured track is none other than Bathurst.
(Imho, *the* greatest track there is - 'Ring included!)

Just imagine racing one of these nice cars at tracks like:
Interlagos, Kyalami, Long Beach, Jarama, Zolder, Monte Carlo, Anderstorp,
Paul Richard, Brands, Nurburgring, ?sterreichring, Zandvoort, Monza,
Mosport, The Glen  and Mount Fuji....

DAMMIT PAPY!! Give us GPL2 soon!

I'd still prefer 1937 for GPL2.  1976 would be good I suppose, but is it not
cheating using aerodynamic devices?

No, no, NO! We already have Interstate '76, why bother making another
racing game on the same year?

<G>

The fact is, the F1 sport suffered in the mid-seventies of having too many
horribly lame tracks that everybody hated. Like Mount Fuji, for example.
We also already have most of the tracks listed above in GPL.

Face it, the most interesting year has already been picked and done. No
historical F1 sim based on another year will compare to it.

What we need is a historical _bike_ sim. Sixties or seventies or something,
with Isle of Man and old Mazarykring and all that.

It sure would be nice to see, however..I"m suspicious that the only people
who'd buy are the 150 or so that we see on VROC...........

-Cheers!

only cheating if you keep a little throttle on when braking into corners
