Still doesn't change the fact that it's NASCAR, though.

yessss but....
Disney has a track that the IRL runs,,you could call them
partners...Disney owns ABC/ESPN you could say that partners of the IRL might
be inclined to show preference to that league. I suspect we will be
delighted with the nascarvisin...errrr Speedvision coverage of CART.

Please be careful in saying "it's coming" ;) The timeframe is most
definitely a wide one.

Perhaps if the powers that might be would disclose some of their file-format
knowledge we might see some more tools and utilities for N4 - like we did
for GPL.

Can't speak to that...I'm only a user. Not a power.
It would be nice if they did open things up, but I think at least for the
initial release of the N4 based tptcc(whenever that is...) they will play
things pretty close to the vest. Just my uninformed observation.

The most accurate physics can currently be found in SOS 1937, Le Mans
24hrs,*** Johnsons V8 Challenge and NFS High Stakes ;)

Yeah, and a Subaru WRX uses *** bands instead of an engine ;-)

***y powerful they are - did you know that it takes 150 trees 27 years to
create enough *** for one engine? The trees are only available on a
small patch of land just south of Nempnett Thrubwell due to local climate
conditions. They are a special tree.
