Hmmmm "Louisville was a great track tho' :)" was that a limestone track?
Ever meet Rex Beauchamp?

Spent many a Friday night at Ascot, just in the stands as a spectator.
All my boss (LA Harley Davidson) would offer me was a HD motocrosser bike at
cost. :(

Remember those.........LOL

Maybe I'm missing something, but I think you'll find "PO" to be a fairly universal chat message standing for "Pit Out", in other words "keep you're eyes open, I'm leaving the pits now and entering the track."

<<Seriously guys... with anyone that has been wrecked by a real
wrecker... don't they usually SIT on the track... or RIDE LOW then
MOVE UP into the wall to hit the cars?>>

Yep. Your right on that one.  Except if I started reading the log-in message
from Papyrus I would make sure whenever I wrecked someone, it would be very
discreet.

<<Papy's ranking system encourages you to keep racing for points...>>

So does Nascars, but at somepoint, especially if you can't be safe to the other
drivers, for the good of all involved...YOU PARK IT.

If I was a wrecker I would get the highest ratings I could so that I could mess
with people who have a little more at stake, people who are in higher ranked
races believing they are safe from wreckers.  Whats the fun of wrecking someone
with a ZERO ranking with nothing to lose?

<<I would be glad to race you and any others... anytime you would like
to prove how good of a driver I am.>>

You may very well have the talent to be good.  But I watched the replay and in
my humble opinion, it was deliberate.  You got what was coming to you.  And if
you don't like my answer, too bad, then don't offer your replay as proof.

Well you have to remember REDLINE this was a good 30yrs ago
but I do know that the "Louisville" track was 'gravel-ly' or maybe
I'd say almost 'rockie' as all get out.. You did not want to end up
behind too many racers on that track cuz' those flyin' things hurt!
I don't remember if it was 'limestone' or not but they hurt...lol
Rex Beauchamp doesn't ring a bell but there were 100s of good
racers back then and Chuck Palmgren, Gary Nixon, Monostero
brothers, Bobbie Boker & 'many' more that really kept me busy
each race! Back then Gary Nixon was National #1 and he was a
superb' racer! Chuck Palmgren & the Monostero brothers were
good friends and I raced for 'Harley' via Mills Harley Davidson.
Wow! you sure took me back to a place I havent really thought
about in years!! Thanx :)

Ok guys... I'm back online racing again since I repurchased the
game...
and just got done racing online...

raced in a papy server.. with a full field and I had to retire cause I
went back through the replay and counted 7 wreckers.... by wreckers I
mean:

-Parked on the track
-Sitting on backstretch waiting for leaders to come around making a
mad dash
-diving through the pits
-wrecking half the field before the race started

Now... these are REAL wreckers... and it is 100% OBVIOUS (which mine
was not)
I just want to say this... why are these people still racing and 1 got
banned after one stupid mistake a made?

Well... be careful... ANYONE can be banned now... and we still got
plenty of wrecks out there.

Ya know... i don't remember real wreckers in N3 like there are in
N4... making the rating system... since it doesn't work the way it
should... makes people wanta wreck others to***them off... cause
other than the rating system... IT'S JUST A GAME... GET OVER IT... GO
RACE AGAIN... some people get way too serious about N4... let me
rephrase that... people get way too serious about racing in a papy
server... JOIN A LEAUGE

You couldn't get airborne in N3.  I suppose wreckers like to see stuff
flyin'.

[on the road courses :]

Good idea.  Maybe join a club that has many series where you don't have
to join every race ;)

Obviously Papy has a way of recognizing the CD-key being used.  It could be
tied to that, as is the ban.

What big guys have left for EA and Hasbro??

Last I looked, pretty much all the folks that worked on N4 are still there,
and still working on it.
And why get involved in false rumours?

  He's probably referring to the MGI group that splintered off from Papyrus
several years ago and Don Martin who was an employee of Papyrus, then the
producer of Nascar Heat and now involved with the Nascar Thunder project
coming out of EA.
  However, as you stated, these all left BEFORE  N4  so their leaving would
have little effect on current projects...
