Ladies and gentlemen of R.A.S.:
Since we at IWCCCARS announced that NASCAR 1 car sets would largely
cease to be supported once NASCAR 2 is released, we've gotten quite a
few mails from people expressing their disappointment. So, in
response to these people, I have The Good News(tm) and The Bad
News(tm).
THE BAD NEWS -- get it out of the way first!
--------------------------------------------
It's true. Once NASCAR 2 comes out, NASCAR 1 car sets will not be our
priority. Since we now have ten full-time (I say that reluctantly)
designers, inevitably one of us will get bored and maybe churn out a
car or two from time to time, but the long and short is, we're gonna
concentrate on NASCAR 2. I think you will all be pleased with the
effort we're putting into it, and I know it will be a more flexible
environment than our N1 carsets.
THE GOOD NEWS -- oh goody!
--------------------------
As an early Christmas present, IWCCCARS is going to say "aloha" to
NASCAR 1 with a small bang. We're talking a BIG update to PROMO96,
with some cars some of you thought would never make it in, including a
couple cars from the Suzuka race. We'll also put out an update of
BGN96, with a couple new cars added. And, for all you patient patrons
of our sets, you'll be glad to know that a carset many people had
given up for dead will be posted to our page as the coup d'grace!
So have a great Thanksgiving, and keep watching our page while you're
stuffin' the turkey (and yourselves.. <G>). And once again, thanks
for your continued and enthusiastic support!
