Yes. Pay me and I will be happy (and I might even make monza). But
then you'll have to pay all those companies that will get advertising
(or some such licensing crap)...
Hmm.. never seen that movie. Will have to buy from somewhere.

(still unconvinced about doing monza, because it's... monza. dull,
lifeless. monza. whoooo. much more interested in fun tracks ;-)
Uhh... any guys want to donate some money also?
Aha. That explains a LOT...
Just go watch the movie damnit, before saying things like this! :)

I don't know that much about GPL track editing but I imagine there's a
difference between a car driving onto an object over the track, and a
car on a piece of track that goes over another. The GPL engine would
treat them differently and probably "allow" it.

LOL. Now that track is hilarious. Has anyone been able to ride around on
the Pants logo at the top of the bowl for more than 2 turns? LOL.

A great and extremely crazy track! It really seems to be possible to
make bankings to GPL... :-)
My record on the Pants logo is perhaps only something like 0.75 turns...
And then to the skies!

Normally banked tracks either have smoothly curved cross-sections, or
are simply a piece of track where the outside has been raised - thus one
flat piece.
And no, the human controlled cars don't seem to exhibit any weird
physics, but the AI have big problems!
Oh, and just to throw another spanner in, I've discovered that it is
possible to slipstream with both cars in mid air !
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Somehow I very much doubt it's as realistic as the one in GPL.<G>
