Why call the BBS?  If your reading this, search for it in an FTP site.  <g>
Personally, I d/l'ed it from AOL.  <gasp, AOL!?>

The demo is SVGA, and actually, the VGA mode is horrendous in my opinion.
The VGA graphics in IndyCar 1 look better.  Nothing beats SVGA mode, and it
seems to run faster than NASCAR in SVGA.

Excuse me? This is one of the best DEMO's I've ever tried. Not the
game (which is, frankly,awesome!) but the fact that the demo is soooo
playable. I was very pleased at how much I can play it until the
release version comes out soon.

Superb.

The directory structure is the same, and the files are the same
names, but when I made a Laguna dir in Nascar, it came up as an option in
the game, but wouldn't load.

It won't work; you can't even hack it. NASCAR wants different data in the
.DAT file than IndyCar II. Sorry.
