Amazing how such a good and exciting racing series has never spawned a
decent sim....or even game ?

If it's the same one I recall it was a 'sim' that used actual footage
of bathurst running at about 1 frame per 50 meters. I'd challenge
*anyone* to show me anything comparable to that!
I also think they tacked on a Ford car body with it being projected on
a screen and rolled it out at a few car shows. People were coming out
amazed. ;)

The Q here is, what were they amazed about ? :-)

Ouch! I'd hate to find out what 2nd prize won. ;)
That sounds vaguely familiar so it prolly is correct.
Maybe they were pumping exhaust fumes into the***pit. I think I
saw it around about the time I was really into GP2. I took one look
at this thing and couldn't believe how rudimentary it was. No
physics whatsoever yet it still had the punters grinning like idiots.
Cheers,
Rod.
The memories come flooding back. ;)
