IWCCCARS: NASCAR 2 page back online

Ladies and gentlemen --

I'm tired.

Man, what a long night.  I had finals until midnight EST last night
(my LAST ONES!), and like an idiot I got up early this morning to redo
the entire NASCAR 2 page on IWCCCARS.

Anyway, the cars are available for download again.  You'll see some
new additions, as well as a slightly different format arrangement for
some of the cars.  The .EXE distribution archives are now 32-bit, and
the cars have ALL been renamed (yes, all 22 of them) so that they
won't overwrite the game's default cars.

Phew.  Merry Christmas, everyone.

        Tony, this is not meant as a flame.
        What is the point in making the .EXE's for the cars 32 bit?
        They are very small files, do you get better compression?
        Faster? They are so small that speed is not an issue either.

        What this does do is make it impossible for people not using
Win95 or Win32s to extract the cars.

        Please consider changing these back to a plain-old-DOS .EXE (kinda
like Nascar2 is) so that *everyone* can enjoy them.
        Thanks,
        Ralph
