Which sim?

My buddy and i want to race some sort of championship online. We are in different parts of the country, so i guess connection will be via the internet. So we want 2 players and the rest of the field made of AI's. What racingsim will do that? Martin

Your best bet is rFactor. Alanb

A GT kind of car. I find open wheelers a bit too sensitive. Have been playing GTR a lot. The most important thing is to be able to play a couple of humans against a field of computer controlled cars. Martin. "Larry" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:3xRng.43300$fG3.17966@dukeread09...

My sons and I race NASCAR 2003. We wish that GTR and GTR Legends would allow AI cars on track. I was wondering if Flatout allowed AI cars while racing via a LAN. Joe "Marni" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:449f0b6a$0$198$[email hidden]...

You could add the Mod to NR2003 for the Road Cars. Damned if I don't forget the name of it at the moment. -Larry "Joe Mendel" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

GTP. http://redlinedevelopments.com. To make this work you'll need to do a second install of NR2003 so you don't over-write the other sounds. (you can drag a copy to a new folder) http://mnrlonline.com has very well organized GTP leagues. Larry wrote:

Yeah, that's it. I actually liked the new sounds in GTP better :) -Larry "Niles Anders" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:kZxog.148167$k%3.87789@dukeread12...

Thanks, but Nascar are too many left turns and too few rights ;) Wonder if GTR2 will support AI cars when racing via LAN... Anyway, i just purchased rFactor, and i think it does the job. Pretty well too. With a lot of mods of course... "Joe Mendel" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Marni, 15 minutes at 2 sites (then hours downloading) will produce like near 200 tracks you can get for the game including some decen road courses... http://www.raceservers.net/Software_Downloads.htm for one. http://www.simracingconnection.com/nascar/n2k3tracks.shtml for a pretty complete list...

Ok thanks....... Im a little confused about the Nascar tittles; Nascar Simracing by EA is the newest and prettiest of the Nascar games, but Nascar 2003 Season by Papyrus are considered to be the best... Right? Marni. "PlowBoy" <[email hidden]> wrote;

Yes, for Nascar type racing there is very little comparision. For non oval type racing, there are other titles that may be more beneficial, although there are several good mods for Nr2k3. But if strict oval Nextel cup racing is your passion, then nr2k3 trumps NSR. dave henrie

> Im a little confused about the Nascar tittles; > Nascar Simracing by EA is the newest and prettiest of the Nascar games, > but Nascar 2003 Season by Papyrus are considered to be the best... Right? Yes, the EA version has little quirks, like no mirrors at all, for one thing.

By a long shot NR2003 is better. Nascar Sim Racing was dead within 2 weeks of release. Promised patches never arrived, the pre-sale hype never accomplished. What was so disappointing about NSR was it was NOT SUPPOSSED to suck like EA's previous attempts. All the pre-sales hype trumped it up to be the next coming of sim racing. It isn't even close. -Larry "Marni" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:44a5af06$0$161$[email hidden]...
