Either way,  you get a canned "automated" response. Here's what they said:

At 03/06/2001 10:56 AM we wrote - The ability to save a race in
progress is not available with NASCAR 4. The developers felt the
ability to save while racing was not in keeping with a "pure
simulation."

Bull! A "pure simulation" would not force you to run 20% race length all the
time. Unfortunately, I have to work for a living. I can't spend 3 hours in
front of the computer.

 I'll probably return N4 to sierra for a refund. I don't race online and
without a save I can't race 100% race length. Frustrating!

They should have said this "We didn't have time/we were too lazy to put a proper
save game into the program. If you want to save games, play Grand Prix 3. Too
bad you didn't know this before you bought a product that holds you prisoner for
3-4 hours ..."

At 03/07/2001 12:42 AM we wrote - The inability of the developers to not
implement a save race feature was not in keeping with what the consumers
want so we will not buy anymore game from them. BYE!!!

*** Reply that to them when they send you the above garbage!!!
