Does anyone have idea when this game will be released if they haven't
already done so? I am dying to try one of their sprint or silver crown
cars.

  Didn't ABC close down its interactive software division. That is what the
Monday night Football game crowd has been saying. If so, we may never see
this game. If we do see it, will it get any support?

Hey there

Indy should be going gold any day now.  We have a release candidate we've
sent out to the press for preview purposes.

The sprint, midget and SC cars are fun -- tight ovals, contact.

Game will be 3D hardware acceleration only.  D3D, DirectX 5.

We do stuff like model all 4 wheels, on all the cars.  I'll post more
technical stuff for you guys when I get it together...  

Sorry for the form letter response from tech support.

You'll see the game and get support.  Disney's committed to supporting the
titles.  We're already talking to Mplayer about multiplayer Indy...
