If you know who Nuvolari and Varzi were then check out this thread http://www.tiresmoke.simracing.com/ubb/Forum6/HTML/000015.html on the Tiresmoke forums. Looks like Spirit of Heat is coming along nicely. Who would have guessed that a simple little NASCAR game could have spawned as many children as this. Fortuneatly there is no Old Car Raceing League to shut down Bodin and associates on this one :) Dav_Erb

Wish I knew though I did read a mention of Portland in the thread. Maybe John Bodin can answer that. David "MP" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I'll take a shot - You can race all the Heat tracks there are, which include the MGI originals as well as some converted tracks from ISI's SCGT/F1 series (incl. Indy-oval & road, Road Atlanta, and others), a CPR conversion (Portland), some nice GP500 conversions (Brno, Imola, and Mugello), as well as some scratch-built tracks by various authors (Andy Garton's growing selection of dirt ovals from his BriSCA mod are shown in the tiresmoke thread.) There's even an off-road track or two out there should you feel the need to go jump some hills in your shiny new Napier-Railton. (not recommended ;-) ) No actual period tracks yet, but the way things are going... The BHMS forum, http://forums.bhmotorsports.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi is a good spot to find out about what's up with Heat in general and where to find new tracks, mods, etc. Cheers, SB "David Erb" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:iT4S7.1815$[email hidden]...

Fortuneatly there is no Old Car Raceing League to >shut down Bodin and associates on this one :) Yes, SoH is a cracking mod, I am on the beta test team and I think this mod will be very popular with Heat owning GPLr's. One of my fellow test drivers likes it a lot and finds it pretty tricky to drive. Someone well know to GPLr's with the initials GH. Anyway, there are actually lots of great mods for Heat. DTM, Cart, F40 Challenge, Le Mans, Brisca F1 Stockcars, Saloon Stock Cars, Baja Beats, Dirt Heat, Trucks, 50s Pickup Trucks, Saleen Heat, GT500s, GT40s, even Cops & Baddies Heat :) These aren't just visual mods the physics are very different and very believable, many are complete "new games" with AI, new menu's etc. I just did an email response to someone looking for updates and info which I've copied below. I'd recommend picking up the Dirt Trucks or Baja Beats and the Desert Thunder Tracks.

Not sure the exact number but prob can onlay have 6-8 add-on tracks. To get round this, just move the .trk files that you don't want to run into a backup directory (they should be in your \run or \data directory. >Check it out. yes and yu need to have all patches installed >in the right order aswell as for your own sanity sake, keep Nascar heat >installed in the default directory ;) VERY GOOD ADVICE.

Woaaaah! These pics are impressive! :-) The skinny tyres look terrible. Must be hard as hell to drive fast! I really look forward to this one. Does anyone know if it's possible to buy Nascar Heat in France?

Never a dull moment with a traction circle this small. Very, very fun, though...I think it's going to be a hit. John, ben and the guys have done a terrific job- now all we need are period-correct tracks ;) Scott Moore The Pits Touring Car Championship http://www.theuspits.com
