Guys....I was at E3 last year...and this year......and these are my candid
remarks regarding the "speculation" on WSC and Empire and Chris and Tony and
Derek Bell losing a race to me at Brands in a pair of 962's last
week.......in an not-to-be-named hotel room with about 40 "spectators"
jammed into the room:
"No comment!"

If it were vapour ware - would we not have been told from the horses mouth
As it is - it's not that there's nothig to say - it's that nothing CAN be
said.
If it were vapour ware - that couldnot and would not be the case now would
it?
I'm looking forward to it. If you think it doesnt exist - I'll see you in
the queue to buy it.

All rhetorical questions, BTW, but they make my point, while the Wests may
be continuing to develop that is not the be-all and end-all of game
production, their 'forced' lack of communication only leaves doubts &
questions in those that were (are?) interested in WSC's fate.

same
as F1 2001 / 2002 to me?.
