I played TOCA, Viper Racing, and Professioanl Sports Car Racing. By far
Professioanl Sports Car Racing is the best one of all 3. I was glued to this
one at E3! But considering *** is dropping out of the computer software
business (they just sold Westwood) and closing up there offices after they
release there last few games, *** hasnt been promoting this game at all!
Once its released I think it will impress a lot of people.

Here all the info I know:
Released around xmas 98
Models Professioanl Sports Car Racing is US
Car which are in, Panoz, Porche, BMW, Mustang, i cant remember the rest
Tracks, Sebring, Mosport, Sears Point, Laguna Seca, many more with 12hr
enduracne races
Suports 3dfx, graphics are really nice, day/night racing, lights glow under
braking, wet track looks slippery, headlight, smoke from looking up tires.
Gameplay is very very good when I tried a pre Alpha, so image how much it
will be improved. Multiplayer was in there on the alpha and running great,
*** had 4 system hooked up on a LAN and we raced it for 4hrs without a
hitch. Different classes in there, GT1, GT2, GT3. Physics werent in the
alpha yet when I tried it, but it seems to do all the little things right,
like you could feel the bumps on the track. The cars chassis would roll
through turns. Coming out of corners with full power the cars would get
loose. I wish *** start advertising this one more cuz its coming up to
release and still many people dont even know such a cool racing sim is
coming out.

They have, and at all the GT events - even co-sponsoring the drive at
Laguna Seca.

Cheers!

Has this game got press like GPL, or even Monaco Racing, no not really. Go
on ***'s web site, they only have a press release from E3 about it. Its
really a cool game and I would like to see the word spread about it. I don't
want it to be overshadowed like some other great games (System Shock).
