You guys didn't read jason's post. He said that almost the entire $50 would
be worth paying just for an updated pocono track.

One updated track.

I'm the last person to complain about paying for a sim. The price of the
games themselves are incredibly cheap cosidering how much time we use them
and enjoyment we get out of them.

Dave I look at it this way.  I spent $50 on Nascar Thunder and played
it for less than 4 hours before it became a coaster.  $50 for
something that is simply Nascar 2002 with a more accurate Pocono
wouldn't be a bad deal.

  I'll assume this will be the start of the "I'm not paying $50 for a patch"
  thread that we had when ...

That is a good point.  I think that with N2003 it will required greater
system resources.  More money to upgrade your sytem just to run it.  The
real money when it comes to sim racing.  Price of the game is chicken feed.

You're also not sitting in the back seat when driving, ie, you can see
more of the track; hence, you only get 3/4 of the rear view mirror.
