go left.  so; what's the status on online road-course racing?

Well, there's two tracks...

And nobody knows for sure what will happen with the third-party converter of
GPL tracks.  Papyrus will probably block them like they did for N3
unfortunately.  It's a shame.

  But the fact Papy has blocked them hasn't stopped at least two different
leagues from running online races.  Tracks that include Mosport, Monza, Road
America, Mid Ohio etc etc.  Yes the general public can't just join in.  But
if you have N3, there are plenty of Road Racing alternatives.  I suspect the
same for N4.

I know, and I can live with that if they're actually used on this WON-thing.

Not very good.  Most of the action is at Daytona.  Having said that, it's a
blast.  More like mobile chess than racing, but the old heart rate doubles
before the start all the same.

I'm serious - I never thought going left 60 times could be so much fun.
With Daytona it's just flat out all the way, and you can often have a bunch
of 6 - 10 cars nose to tail, two or three wide.  Well, for at least half a
lap, anyway.  Usually there's a nice big accident to break up the boredom.

Cheers
Simon
