Subject:  LATE MODEL RACING -

We want your input to help us finalize design and improve what we hope
will be the Worlds Best Auto-Racing and Driving Simulator in the World.
Over 10 years In development, but we want to you to provide us with your
suggestions to make it even better.  This simulator will work with the
following Racing series Formula 1, IndyCar, IRL, Nascar, Hooters Cup,
USAR, Busch, Arca, All-Pro, Toyota Atlantic, Formula Russell, and Barber
Dodge.  

Note: Several Top Drivers like Jacque Villaneue, Paul Tracy, Brian
Herta, tried to beat the track records set by the designer of the
simulator, but were not able.  He says, I've been driving Formula 1 cars
a lot longer than they have. <GGGGGG>

This simulator has received international praises like:  "The ULTIMATE
RACING SIMALATOR", "IT Feels and drivers like my race car.",
"Extraordinary", "***space 4-Wheel Drifts",

What makes this AUTO RACING 1998 simulator so real, its attention to
hundreds of physics details like these:

Hmm, sounds good so far...

Haven't seen these very often in a proper race car...

"Trust", huh? Like "In Camber We Trust"...?

Now, I've seen some marketing excesses, but counting this as a feature
of a racing simulator is certainly stretching it... I wonder when Papy
will have a patch to support a dead-pedal? :-0

Does anyone use these on a "real" (not SCCA or other club) race car?

Sure you have Jim!  Every one of Papyrus' race cars come equipped with
these!  Sorry I couldn't resist!  Take care, and thanks for keeping up
with the group and lending your information to us, even though you are no
longer a Papy employee.
