This sim is scheduled for release on Feb 15th 2001, according to
http://www.racesimcentral.net/. Can anybody confirm this, or does
somebody have more news about this sim? I read a little bit about this
one about a year ago, and then nothing.
I read an interview about this one a while ago, and it looked very
promising.. hope it will be as good as Skip Barber's book..

Which book are you refering to Andre?

I hope it's a good as the real things, I can't wait to get my hands on a
Barber-Dodge Reynard. I stopped racing with them when they used the
previous chasis. I hope that it will include the Formula Dodge car also.

Going Faster : Mastering the Art of Race Driving : The Skip Barber
Racing School by Carl Lopez.
It's a very, very good book, definately worth the money.

I thought that Skip Barber was shelved last month.

We can hope, but if that release date holds, it's likely to get
completely lost in the hoopla over NASCAR4 (same release date), no
matter how good it is. :(

nothing to be frightened of, and no limit, any fool could get into
a motor car and racing would not exist as a sport." -- Jim Clark
