   Hi -----

     I have seen in various computer based magazines toward last year
---- and I THINK the BGN disk had something about it -------- about
RENO AIR RACING

    Is it destined for release?  Or ------------ did it bite the dust?
I haven't seen anything about it in months --------- hope someone can
answer this question, even though it is a bit off the subject here
------- it STILL is competitive motor sports in some fashion

       THANKS

        Doug

Shame.
If done *PROPERLY*, that could have been a very interesting, and
enjoyable, simulation.

Yup....maybe they had too much on their plate and it might be raised in
the future, hopefully.

Air racing using vintage (WWII) warbirds - the favorite being the P51
Mustang and AT6 Texan.  Basically these planes raced around a series
of pylon-towers out in the Nevada dessert, hence the name Reno.

Ah yes indeed it could had been a hit...

Mostly since it was the only product of his style, well there is also a air
racing arcade game from SEGA but it's unrealistic...

I've heard rumors it was indeed finished but never went pass production.  Oh
well...

The only place you can see a little tidbit about it is in the Nascar Racing
2 Grand National Series Expansion pack.  It was on the promotional Papyrus
AVI movie.  It looked really.. "Papyrus" ;-)
