New n2 newsgroup?

Anybody got the knowledge/resources to set up an N2 only newsgroup.  N2
messages are the most common on this newsgroup, and frankly it is a pain
having to filter though so many articles every day.  Don't know the
steps necessary, but it sure would leave more time for racing.

    Its just a temporary spike, the messages will return to normal
volume in about a week or two, happens everytime a new sim
comes out ..GP2...ICR2 last year....etc

We went through this a few times already in the last year when
a new product came out and got most of the interest on this group.

May I suggest that you use a kill file or get a newsreader that allows
you to ignore certain subjects. This newsgroup really isn't big enough
to require splitting, and most of us benefit from hearing about other
types of auto racing sims, it is really easy to ignore subjects or
people who get on your nerves with a simple kill file, give it a try
and I guarantee you that you will wonder how you ever got along without it.
Especially with the number of new idiots who get access to the Internet
each Xmas it is sure to come in handy in a week or two.

Also, don't worry there are a couple of different F1 sims set to release soon,
and hopefully the GP2 update also, so the non-Nascar2 talk around here
is sure to pick up anyday now.

Cheers.
