I would like to see a patch to convert the tracks from Nascar 2 to GPL and
Vs. Sure, both games use a different engine, but I have seen it done before
with other games.

Actually the converters done in the past all had the same game engine
(N1 --> Icr2, N2 <--> Icr2, etc..).

Something of this sort is and was possible, the only problem is with Sierra
who is doing their devil by slapping a possible law suit if it ever gets
reality.  So David Noonan somehow stopped this project after the GPL Watkins
Glen  track was converted to NR99.  It could be remade but not including any
Papyrus code is almost impossible.

Finally, be sure that some people are already preparing the GPL <--> N3
converters and the only thing left is to wait and see how the  3DO and TRK
is different from both software.  Let's hope Papyrus doesn't block that on
purpose.
