Those darn Esses ;)

It pushes the track building of the old game engine to the limit.  Wide
off-road sand traps, very accurate layout, and when you go near the fence in
the Esses on the inside there is some banking on the hills, a first for the
old game engine.  It's very sweet, especially when converting to N3.  Except
those funky cars, but Im still trying to figure that out ;)

And I do think the 40track maximum for N3 is a *** theory, they made
it on purpose.  Why go backwards ? There's no reason else. Im hearing Black
helicopters, oops :)

Sorry about the 40 track limit in N3.   We bumped it up to 60 in NASCAR
Legends.  No *** involved ... we don't let the marketing guys touch
the code <g>.  We just never tried making a larger calendar prior to release
of NASCAR 3.

Hmm, I think 60-track capability would be a great thing for an N3 patch, eh?

np Charlie, I was thinking about emailing you about this for an upcoming
patch, but I figured you already knew.  It was a tongue-in-cheek remark..
note that the Papyrus Black Helicopters did scared me ;)

Im still testing the F1/F2 out of sync bug I talked about a couple of weeks
ago.  If I get more info, I'll email you. Seems to be related to pitting.

Yeah, I have the same problem with the f1/f2 bug.  It only occurs in the pits
(specifically when I am in the stall) and not at all while I am going down pit
road.  It doesn't matter whether I am being passed as I sit in the pits or if
the cars are way on the back stretch.

Nothing too major, but kind of a pain when you want to ensure enough time to
stay ahead of the pace car.
