The trick is not to turn the wheel too hard. You think you have to apply a
lot of steering input to get around the corner, but with the steep banking,
if you take the corner at the right speed, you barely have to turn the
wheel at all.

I agree with Joe. I get a better frame rate with these two new tracks
than with Taladega. I'm running a 486/66 with an overdrive chip ==P83. I
can run the objects and texture on and still able to drive. Great work
Papyrus or to whoever did these.

I am almost 100% sure that these tracks are official Sierra. When I
loaded them from my PCGames demo CD the setup screen was all Sierra
Online. Plus I heard that the tracks are to be included on the new Busch
CD.

 a bag of money and beg them to come to work for Sierra as a
 professional track maker (presuming it was not someone on the N2

 REAL race tracks - can you imagine watching a live race at a RedRock
