I was at Babbages today and they said January for a release date.

Does anyone have any firm info on this?

TIA,
Scott

They must have of thinking of something else. It should be out by the end of
the month. Electronic Boutique has a release date of Oct. 15.

>What is N2 Track Pack??

This is a quote from an explanatory post by Matt Marsala at Papyrus:

NASCAR Grand
National Series Expansion Pack (GNS). ...

GNS will include 10 1997 Grand National tracks ,2 fantasy tracks, and
approximately 30 1997 Grand National series cars, teams, and drivers.
A "Season Schedule" widget has been added to the Race Options screen
to allow the player to choose between different race calendars (i.e.
NASCAR Cup and Grand National, and whatever player created calendars
exist).

Here's the list!

Texas Motor Speedway
Californial Motor Speedway
South Boston Speedway
Nazareth Speedway
Nashville Speedway USA
The Milwaukee Mile
Hickory Motor Speedway
Indianapolis Raceway Park (not IMS)
Myrtle Beach Speedway
Gateway International Raceway

... and two fantasy tracks:
Bull Run
Red Rock

Here's a partial list of the drivers that we are including in the GNS
entry list:

#1 H. Sadler Dewalt
#5 T. Labonte Bayer
#9 Burton Track Gear Ford
#10 Parsons Channellock
#11 Pearson Outdoor Life - Speedvision
#14 Moise Pure Silk
#21 Waltrip Band-Aid
#24 D. Hutto Unsponsored
#33 Fedewa Kleenex
#34 McLauglin Royal Oak Charcoal
#38 E. Sawyer Barbasol
#43 Setzer Lance Snacks
#44 B. Labonte Shell
#47 Pressly Sunoco
#48 Porter Unifirst Uniforms
#60 Martin Winn Dixie
#72 Dillon Detroit Gasket
#74 LaJoie FINA
#88 Lepage HYPE
#96 Reeves Big A Auto Parts
#99 Allen Luxaire

Take a look at gamecenter.com on August 18th for an announcement re:
GNS!

Some screenshots should be posted on the Sierra website in the coming
weeks... I will let you all know when they are available.

Happy Racing!

(Please note: This is the Busch Grand National, or BGN, series. They
omit the Busch name, probably because beer sponsorship is not liked in
computer stores. :)

On the sierra board last Fri. the tech said the CD is being burned right
now and that it would be in stores in three weeks, give or take a week.
The release date scheduled for Jan. is either a second non-Busch track
pack, or the Nascar Manager program also in production.

It went gold one or two weeks ago and is certainly due in stores WELL
BEFORE January...

Babbages and Software Etc are confused. (Wouldn't exactly be a first
time for either...)
