Great track, the racing was good with the usual papy open caveats of potentially at least two incidents (idiots on lap one and idiots later in the race). The top 20 drivers all qualified within 0.8 seconds of each other (I got a 50.3 with the papy qually setup). A nice track to drive, much like Atlanta. I also raced at Daytona having spent a long time away from the SS, I was extremely frustrated by the asthmatic performance of the car (restrictor plate racing!) not nearly as much fun as the speedways, and texas is a really nice drive. cheers John(#59)

I was just thinking the same thing. Coca-Cola would be good since it's not a real track. In article <af5d3a$b9trr$[email hidden]>, [email hidden] says...

I guess coke would be all right if everyone else wants to run it, but I view coke about the same way I view running in Arcade mode... I prefer realism when sim racing. Brian Oster On Sun, 23 Jun 2002 23:03:35 +0200, "Carl Ribbegaardh" <[email hidden]> wrote:

Your tires don't go bad as quickly as at other tracks too. David G Fisher

Yes, but it's a fun diversion :) Oddly, is scores as a SW track though! -Larry "Brian Oster" <bgoster@swbell**nosmap**.com> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Yup. The best setup I have is for this track. Its fast from the first lap to the last lap and the tires all wear evenly. It doesn't get loose or too tight it stays very consistent. Brian Oster

Well, Texas has been nominated. How about Martinsville? Have they fixed the pace car bug? The other night on one of Papy's 0-10 servers someone had setup a Martinsville race and about 30 people had joined. So I said, what the hell, who needs a good LPI and joined. It was halarious. I have never seen such carnage. I was charged with 3 incidents but was probably involed in more like 5 or 6 but nothing major and still ended up finishing 2nd. I think my spotter had a stroke... "we got trouble in turn 1" "there's a spin in turn 2" "there's a big mess on the backstretch" "there's a spin in turn 3" "there's a crash in turn 2" "we got trouble in the pits" "slow car up ahead" "we got a car stopped" ... and that was the first lap.

He probably likes Texas too and is saving it for later. :-) David G Fisher "Brian Oster" <bgoster@swbell**nosmap**.com> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Well, I guess that is a good point. I'd probably do the same. So what is it? Texas or Las Vegas? Brian Oster

I'll take your word for it, but I thought Eldred just made a passing reference to Las Vegas, not that it was the actual track choice. I really don't care, I just want to know where to start practicing, that's all. -Larry "John Simmons" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I'll vote for any track that only gets one visit during the year. In my order of preference: 1. Phoenix 2. Watkins Glen 3. Homestead 4. Sears Point 5. Texas Jason

It's 4:16 EST on Wednesday. Let's settle this guys :) Until I hear otherwise, I'm starting practice at Las Vegas because John Simmons said so. If he's wrong, well, I'll just have to kick his butt at the track on Saturday :) -Larry "jason moyer" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...
