Hi all,

    I have both GPL and Nascar 3. I also have a copy of ICR1. I would sure
like to get Dave's converter but i do not have any of the other games. More
than likely they are no longer able to be purchased. I am interested in the
road circuits for gpl. If i want Oval, I race N3. What can i do to get the
tracks that would warrent me to get Dave's converter. If i could find the
games i would pay for them. If i cannot then what can i do?

Regards

D. Taylor

Get the warez version??

Only kidding!!!!!!!

Similar position here, I'm not all that interested in the ovals in N3,
and only have N3 and GPL. Old games are hard to come by here in Aust.

Bruce, I've been thinking the same thing all day. It shouldn't be too hard
to do a USAC carset from that era. There are plenty of photographs around
and the carshapes are close enough to replicate the feel of mid sixties
Champ Cars.

Here is a link to the 1966 grid, there are some good cars and drivers in
here: http://www.indy500.com/stats/grids.php3?raceyear=1966

Rafe, the Indy speedway takes on a Whole New Meaning when raced on in GPL.
I've "raced" at Indy ever since Papyrus brought out their very first sim,
and from then it's been a succession of ICR1, ICR2 (converted), the Nascars
but the physics of GPL make it a completely new experience.
It's a different feel ball-game altogether and I really hope that some
enterprising young lad (or lassy) comes up with a "car set" that replicates
the shapes/liveries of the 1965/66/67 period. (That Repco engine is pretty
damn close to the appearance of the Ford used over those years....just paint
the exhaust system yellow and we almost have a Lotus 38!)

Speaking of Indianapolis, anyone got a good race setup?  I tried running
against the AI today (do they really need to brake that hard for turn 3?) and
had a comfortable lead when my car got VERY loose from an overheated right rear
tire.  I finally spun the car out, recovering, only to spin again on my hot
tires.  :(

I've got one for the Yamura (as my alter-ego is Pete Aron!) for F2 level,
Dan.
Want it?

Thanks DOn....yep, I've been sitting here for a while browsing through Dave
Friedmans book covering the Indy years 1961 - 1969 and, man alive, somebody
with the ability just *HAS* to create a car set!!  I just wish that I had
the time, patience and ability to play with basic 3DO shapes.
Having looked at the current (GPL) default shapes, I think that the Eagle
and the Brabham come the closest to providing a "base" from which to start.
If the Repco engine could somehow be grafted onto the Eagle then we'd have
the best of both worlds.......two different "shapes" in other words.
(The BRM lends itself to turning into the Novi!!!  Cover that H-16 with
sheet-metal, paint it dayglo STP red and instant Novi)
