So I bought Links LS99 so I could golf with Arnie at St.Andrews when it struck
mewhy not car packs and track sets?  With Papy using the same engine for GPL
and NASCAR 3 wouldn't it be cool if you could race any of their cars on any of
their tracks?  You could buy modern versions of the GP tracks for instance or
consider LeMans.  The '67 race was the Buggati circuit at LeMans but it's not
in GPL.  How about selling LeMans With Derrick Bell and Porche!  You could run
the '67 race GP style or go endurance racing with NASCAR stockers and GTP rigs
(Hershel MaGriff and a Dodge Charger raced LM in the early '70s).  Indy with
roadsters and the first rear engines.  Monza: banked cobblestones, the '67
track and the modern version with barriers and bus-stop chicanes.  Guest
drivers with marque carsets!  Imagine following Ernhart down the Mulsanne while
he's "rubbing" with Senna and we're all in 917 Posches!  Horseing a Monte Carlo
around the Gasometer at its namesake track at Monaco while a Taurus nerfs Loti
into the harbor during an online "Run What Ya Brung" race!  With an Indy car
set against F1 cars we could settle the debate about which series really is
racier.  Gearheads could spend a month setting up a six-wheel Tyrrell!

Look here Papy, we spend a couple of hundred for a wheel and pedal setup and a
couple more for video cards, don't you think we wouldn't spend some cash for a
few $25 add-ons to run on our $40 host programs?  Look at the 3D shooters and
their mission packs.

Oh yeah, I'll be selling the limited edition Ferrari set.  A red leather jewel
case for $750
