NASCAR 2 Fall '96?

I was recently at sierra online and went to the herald section.  This is
where they talk about new and upcoming releases and so forth.  According
to this, NASCAR 2 is scheduled to come out in the Fall of '96.  Could
anyone elaborate as to what changes, and/or additions will be added?  
Will it have the same, or similiar, graphics engine as Indycar 2?

What we've all known for a while now has finally been confirmed by Sierra.  Go
to: http://www.racesimcentral.net/
yourself.  
What's up at Sierra On-Line:

Fall 1996

      Betrayal in Antara
      ***Gladiators
      Home Variety 6-Pack
      Hunter Hunted
    > NASCAR 2 <
      Phantasmagoria 2
      Playtoons 6
      Rama
      Sierra Originals 6
      Sierra Originals (on Macintosh)
      Trophy Bass II
      3D Ultra Pinball: Creep Night

I realized that before no one could comment on it (other than Rick's not so
subtle hints that it was in the pipeline) because of Papyrus' company policy
regarding not disclosing information on unannounced projects, but what about now?
 Does this count as an official announcement, or do we still have to wait for a
press release of some sort?  

Rick?  Ed?  Anyone?

Wahey!

Does 'fall' mean sometime in Q4? I.e. end of. I.e. Christmas?

There is only ONE question that is important regarding NASCAR 2.
Will it be 3D?
