Really?

How about going and getting it, then post some new screen shots here, I am
sure nobody would mind a little proof.

We have heard it all before, and I for one am not believing a word until Adam
states it is a fact!

Remember all. The pictures on Nascar for Mac looks like Nascar 2, but
it is Nascar 1.

  I spoke with all the Best Buy stores in the Detroit area and they ALL
said they had it!  They All also said they were sold out!
  All others said NO they did not have it, period.
  With the mention of "rain checks", I am not convinced that Best Buy is
being truthful.

  Botom line...lets be patient and please no whinning like was done
while waiting for the release of GP2.

Me too!!!

A Best Buy employee said that Elvis was delivering all of the NASCAR 2 copies
himself, seems he "borrowed" one of the spacecraft which abducted him, and has
been contracted by Sierra to deliver NASCAR 2 in a more efficient manner.

Exactly! I mean, where have you guys been lately?!? Adam specifically
said that he will let this NG know when they go gold with Nascar2, and
I sure as hell haven't heard anything ... It's not out yet!

    Damn... hate it when that happens! Did the ship you saw have "TCB"
and a lightning bolt anywhere near the back? It may have been Lisa
Marie... where's Oliver Stone to make a movie about this when you need
him...

I heard Sierra moved its headquaters out near Area51. So Elvis and ET
could test drive Nascar 2. And begin working on Nascar 4.

Wow, it's really amazing how many times you have to come up here and
explain things over and over again.  NASCAR 2 is not out yet.  We did go
Gold the Monday before Thanksgiving, so I would guess the product will be
on the shelves sometime next week (or the week after).  Usually takes
about two weeks to produce.

Adam,
Thanks for your attempt to clear things up, BUT the term "go Gold"
doesn't mean anything to most folks.  Further you are talking about the
period from 02 DEC thru 16 DEC and then "guessing" it will be on
someones shelves during that period because it "Usually" takes about two
weeks.  

What most of us are interested in is, when to expect the mail order
copies we bought from Sierra on the same day we received the offer in
the mail.  If I see the program at Babbages, Egghead, CompUSA, or Joe's
Software, before the "upgrade" mail orders are filled, I have bought my
last Sierra product!  We all love Papy, but Sierra has that
reputation.....

It is vague forecasts that spawn rumors.  From your post all I know is
that I should be able to go to town and buy Nascar II before Christmas.
After all three weeks is "about" two weeks.  And then if I wait for my
mail order copy, I could be getting into the Christmas mail crunch which
means receiving the sim during that little window between Christmas and
New Years.  Perhaps those who didn't respond to the mailer early are
looking at January delivery.

I appreciate your effort, but don't criticize the rumon mongers when all
you really do is fuel the rumor mill.  How about some REAL info?

respectfully,
