Dear everybody,

        I did not know that it was illegal.  I'm not cracking or hacking
or sending ***o photos or something like this.  NO!.  I just send a
Indianapolis track for all the simulator racing fans!!  It's just for
fun!!  Not like hacking or ***o photos.  I would never do things like
this.  I post the track just to make people happy.  It's not a software
it's just a track!!  JUST A TRACK!  I'm just 16 and don't want to get
into any trouble.  Remember, JUST TO MAKE PEOPLE HAPPY.  I received some
applause by E-mail and didn't know it was illegal.  It would not make
this E-mail if it was false.  I didn't know. Just this. MAKE PEOPLE
HAPPY!!!  Next time I want to make people happy I will do nothing.  We
live in a world were possesion are important.  I don't approuve it but
it's the world of ***s.  I'm just 16 and looking for FUN and making
people HAPPY.  I'm not finish here in rec.autos.simulators.  COME ON
EVERYBODY.  Be youung for a while, have fun, it's so SIMPLE!.  Also a
guy named Mosh!! send also the Indy track.  He's not the first.  I'm the

Drop it already.  If you are interested in the legality of distributing
copyrighted software I am sure you can find information on local and world
wide copyright laws.  Corporations take great care to abide by copyright
laws, but home users often do not.  The software manufacturers typically
accept this as the cost of doing business.  However, when we start talking
about entertainment software sold only to the home market - I suspect there
is a greater need to watch out.  The software you distributed is old and no
longer being distributed by Sierra - so I suspect they will let it go.
However, there are a lot of groups (the Pits etc.) that have good working
relationships with Papyrus and do not want stuff like this to become a
problem.  We would like Papyrus to know that information we gather is used
with extreme discretion - both for Papyrus and the racing leagues.  We have
made many modifications to tracks, AI's etc. and kept them to ourselfs in
order to preserve Papyrus's relationship with NASCAR and tracks (like
Daytona) and to prevent an unfair advantage to some racers running in
leagues.  We often send changes to Papyrus so that they may include them in
future versions - but do not distribute things freely.  I hope that things
like this does not cause distrust from Papyrus, Sierra or any of the racing
leagues.

I am sure people will enjoy the Indy Track pack.  Please do not distribute
bits belonging to Papyrus or Sierra in the future - you may distribute
tools or utilities that can be used to modify the bits.  However, when
doing this, please consider how it might effect leagues and Papyrus.

Thanks,  /THansen

It's OK Tom,

        I'm absolutly right with your point.  With all the troubles I went in
(E-Mail Bombing and all the stuff), I don't think I will post a track or
something in R.A.S.  But I think that I've made discretion on the
Indianapolis track.  It's just here (R.A.S.) that I mentionned the
Indianapolis track, so nobody else then all you simracing fans will
notice.  I don't think that Nascar and Ppg Indycar series guys will stop
there relation with Sierra because of the track.  But for the 28491th
time I post the track to make people HAPPY.  Just HAPPY!  It's real that
i'm 16 years old (no joke).  I'm in secondary 5 in a private school in
Montreal (Collge Mont-Saint-Louis).  YMENARD is my father's name.
Fran?ois Mnard is my real name.  He got the E-mail named by him but to
not make comfusion I named me Yves Mnard just to not confuse people
with the two names.  Also, for all of you that mist the post, E-mail me,
I will send it to you.  Those who E-mail and didn't receive the track,
E-mail another time.  I had over 40 request for it.  Hope you're
enjoying the turn4, I think it's the toughest of all 4.  Not really
banked so you have to be smooth.  Remember, I'm the first to post it,
