Looks pretty slick.
Wonder, is this a Papy title?

It looks pretty interesting. :) A genuine realistic Viper *sim*. Which
will be a change from the usual ***these days like NFS3 or TestDrive,
etc.
Can't wait

Viper drivers are invariable businessmen who think they're good drivers but
only use the Viper for town and have their E-Class (insert director-mobile of
choice in place of E-Class) for places they'd get into trouble in the Dodge.
BTW that's the other thing about Vipers... who ever heard of a GOOD American
sportscar?

p.s. Before people point at the GT2 Viper, it took a European team to do that
:)

Since you put it that way, sounds like fun.

I can't wait for the day an American driver from any formula comes to
Oz and races one of our cars successfully. Pruett and Kendall already
tried and failed....who's next? :-)

No disagreement about American drivers, my comments are about Australian
drivers tho. Generally they're great in Australia but seem to forget how to
drive when they reach Europe unless they come over here early in their careers
and learn HOW to race in Europe.
Mark Webber is an exception to the rule, but I hope we don't see Lowndes
anywhere outside these shores again, it'd be a shame to waste an F3000 seat on
him for yet another year.
