Is there a decent one out there? I seem to recall that Indycar 2 didn't have the track because of a rights issue. Who owns the rights these days? Tim

With some searching on the groups.google.com and other places it might be possible to find the indy track for Indycar Racing 2. It's actually very funny. You have to qualify for four laps, and it is a 3 wide start. -- Olav K. Malmin remove .spam when replying
Papyrus/Sierra didn't have the rights in the days of ICR2, but I have a copy of the track. Turning about as fast as the IRL with an IRL car set. I pull it out of hiding every once in a while and act like I'm Helio Castro-Neves or somebody... : ) Sundown

That is because in the OLD days...early 70's the cars did start 3 wide....I assume whomever built the track txt file was feeling nostalgic. And the Indy 500 race does indeed use 4 laps for qualifying with the Average of those 4 laps used as the qualifying speed. dave henrie "Olav K.

Yes, I know. I was maybe using my words a bit wrong saying it was funny, I should have said "race control is very realistic, and by that quite fun to try out" or something :)
