Theory about great racing games, agree?

Hi,
    I have this wierd theory about great racing games and there titles. A
racing game with three initials is destined to be great, and also accepted
by the community. GPL, GP3, and NR4 are a few games with three initials.
ICR2 is very good, but never got on because it is hard to say. SCGT also has
to many initials, so it seems that having 4 destines the game to be good,
but not wholly accepted, as F12k had the same problem. You may say that CPR
is bad, and it has three initials, but with recent fixes to CPR, and support
of the community, it is the best CART sim on the market at the moment. Just
an idea that I had while trying to get to sleep.

Yet another idea destined to spark heated debate, so lemme start (I'm in a
pissy mood, please forgive me):

GP3 got a mixed reception at best
N4 is the more common acronym, that's 2 initials
SCGT was very well received, once it was patched, and is still widely played
DGF doesn't like GPL, so that's 3 initials for and 3 initials against <g>

Sorry, told you I was feeling pissy...

  I have one word to blow your theory to smithereens:
SOS
it IS the weakest link.  Goodbye.

While I have no comment on the three initial
theory, there are some of us out here who actually
enjoy SoS.  Is it great?  No.  Is it the weakest
link?  I think that honor goes to IRC --
International Rally Championship...the dismal
sequel to Network Q RAC.
