> Somebody did a GP2 banked Monza?!?  More info, a link, etc please...

http://www.racesimcentral.net/; It's about a third of the way
down the page, shortly after Road Atlanta, but before Reims.  It's
called 99 Monza Banking and was made by Dan Chinnapen.  

Hope this helps.  :-)

Technically, the first thing that went in my mind was the feature in
Microsoft Motocross Madness (1 and 2) that "canonballs" the bike&biker when
you go out of the limits when I had a mental image of what you just wrote

I don't get your point, Dave.

It was becaiuse the Monza banking existed that the script was written to
take advantage of it! (Also there is some historical precedence....several
cars have disappeared over the banking over the years).

Ditto Monte Carlo...... car into the harbour and car catching fire have
historical precedences.

I think the sheep pasture is more Spa than anywhere else.

For an hilarious motoring scene, get a copy of "Gumball Rally" (a far, far
better, and funnier, movie than "Cannonball Run") and pee yourself laughing
when the Italian bloke on the motorbike has a close encounter with a 'pinus
radiata' (or related species)!!

...and shown up on E.German radar screens as a missle headed for
E.Berlin, thus sparking a cataclysmic worldwide incident. Damn, we could
take your movie in all sorts of different directions, Bruce...!

I don't think so. Cheating should be avoided at ALL costs, simply as
that. Look what it did to Diablo, Everquest, GP2... brrrrrr...
