GPL engine IDEAL for an Outlaw/Sprint sim!

    Hey guys.

    Just throwing that out for us to mull over.

    Every lap I take around the Glen in GPL, I keep thinking how sweet it
would be if there were 15 Outlaws or Sprints turned sideways around a dirt
track.

    I bought SODA thinking I could build a small oval and have a realistic
(feeling) Sprint sim.  Well, as we all know now, SODA just doesn't give
convincing sensory feedback.  GPL however....

    Just watch your arms and the front tires whilst you fly around the Glen
(or maybe I'm spending too much time correcting...)  All it needs is a wing
over the head, a roll cage, and an oval and TaDa!

    Anyway, since I don't see a Sprint/Outlaw sim ANYWHERE on the horizon.
And because it's some of the most intense driving out there, it might be our
only hope!

    Maybe I've just got too much time on my hands!

    Later

  My thoughts exactly, but we might be in luck here. As with past Papyrus
sims it may be possible to convert the Nascar3 tracks back to GPL. Just
think how much fun it will be sliding the GP car around Martinsvile?
