What are the tracks in NR2002? Only the ovals and a couple of "excuse me" road courses? The N4 just got some interesting tracks; to name the very best: the old "GPL"-Silverstone! Can you use those valuable addon tracks directly - as such - in the NR2002? So, in other words: is there any reason (for me!) to buy the new NR2002? Arto PS Are there any projects developing the N4/NR2002 engine to serve any lighter cars series? So, Ferraris, BMWs, Panozis, Vipers, etc., sports cars running on non-oval tracks? With the very good physics engine of N4... -- http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/u/wikla/music.html
N2002 has all the tracks on the Nascar 2002 schedule plus a 3 mile SS. -- Mike Grandy www.precision-racing.com "Arto Wikla" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:wikla.1016060655@kanasaari... > What are the tracks in NR2002?

Dont't tell me that more than 10 of them are just plain ovals and only one or two of them are equipped also with some right curves... :-) (Do I remember right: just only one?) And what is that "SS"?

Well... ya know.... the "sim" is based on actual NASCAR racing...... NASCAR runs ovals. oh..... they throw a couple road courses in the schedule... The Glen and Sears Point. Now... I can sense your sarcastic tone pretty easily If you want tracks with lefts, rights and lighter cars ... buy another friggin game/sims.... FHLH..... damn, haven't been in this NG in about 5 years... nothings changed "Arto Wikla" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:wikla.1016061957@kanasaari...

For example those two road courses among more than 10 ovals in the N4. I guess it is like that also in real life? Isn't it so that also the real Nascar yearly has only one or two non-oval tracks in their schedule? So "excuse me" track means something like "yes, yes, we have all kinds of tracks here" explanation. Sorry if my (foreingn) use of English did not work here! Arto -- http://www.cs.helsinki.fi/u/wikla/music.html

N4 and Nr2002 are made to emulate the current Nascar schedule, 2002 has the new Sears Point layout, Kansas, Chicagoland, and a fictional 3 mile Super Speedway called Coca-Cola. NR2002 has updated graphics, a better physics engine, and a much improved damage model. If you are not an oval fan then Nascar sims are not for you. -- Biz "Don't touch that please, your primitive intellect wouldn't understand alloys and compositions and,......things with molecular structures,....and the....." - Ash Arto Wikla <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:wikla.1016083318@kanasaari... > "Don Jennings" writes: > > >"Arto Wikla" wrote... > >> What are the tracks in NR2002?

Arto, unlike the rest of the group who are taking offence to you wanting more than ovals in NASCAR 2002? IMHO what do you expect? it is NASCAR... but Im not going to insult you yet I do remind you, I didn't even consider complaining that GPL didn't come out with Oval tracks, cause you and others like you, would have been one to prolly jump up and down scream about it not being in Gran PRix for whatever reason and how lame oval racing is... As far as NR2002,.please remember,It has only been out a month about now. All the neat add-on stuff usually takes a while. For what it is worth, Nascar Heat sounds like it is being developed, by 3rd parties, to fit you to a Tee. OF course it has been out for what 2 years now? So directly answering your question, No. there isn't much in the form of tracks that would interest you, included in this release. No, there are not a bunch of Track add-ons as of yet.

Why bitch about a US past-time simulator? You are apparently a foreign, road racing, follow the leader fan not a race fan. Quit trolling here about a NASCAR title that includes EVERY track on the NASCAR schedule as it should. If you don't like ovals, don't buy it, simple.
