Apparently the US site was overloaded.  I did finally find what I was
looking for both via e-mail, and on the European 'Pits site (I was
looking in the wrong place).

Thanks!

mistake when updating yeasterday, but I guess it has to come sooner or
later (yeah right :-)

8K/sec, though...I can post it if nobody (especially David Noonan, great
job, and The Pits, great site) has any objections...

I can't get a halfway decent connection to the file on either site...no more
than 400 BYTES per second...the rest is OK....

Yes, it works perfectly, Dave.
Can't say that driving a B24 around Loudon particularly interests
me....Sears Point and the Glen (I used NR2) are more appropriate. I tell
myself that I'm in a race for Classic F1!!!

Indianapolis would be interesting, mainly for the novelty effect, as it
would closely approximate the mid 1960s rear-engined cars before
aerodynamic aids.
