THis is probably stupid..but a while back, there was the game "Bill
elliotts Nascar Challenge"   That had Daytona..sure, the graphics our
primative, but it WAS Daytona..how bout someone spending some time
figuring out a way to convrt that?  Once you get it converted, then
twiddle with the graphics...

just my stupid two cents..

I had that same thought once.  Probably too hard to make, probably the
format of BENC is too far primitive for what N1 and N2 are.  I doubt
anyone would WANT to spend the time doing it.  That's my 2 cents...

Wasn't that a Nintendo game?

It was made by Konami. It also came out in a PC MS-DOS version.
I have a copy of it sitting in the closet. I raced it for
a while on my old 386 while I waited until I could buy a Pentium in
order
to run NASCAR 2.  It was a fun game, but Bill Elliott was just too
tough.
You could beat him at the short tracks and road courses, but he was a
tough nut on the superspeedways (just like real life, huh?).  You
couldn't
wreck him, either.  You'd bounce off him and crash, while he'd motor
happily away.  I never once saw him have a mechanical failure (bet the
real-life Bill wishes that was the case during this year's WC season).
The graphics were pretty sparse (incl only 10 or so AI cars).

 Bill Elliot's NASCAR Challenge had Daytona but the game itself stunk it up
pretty bad.

I don't know about Nintendo, but I have the Amiga version.  I thought it
was a great simulation at the time.  Of course, that was before Papyrus
and NASCAR.
