Who cares? Not me.....those cars are totally boring to drive......drove an F1 car at a "vintage" event in Portland a few years back. I felt like I could read the Sunday paper, shave and drink coffee, while turning 56 flats. Gosh....totally boring.....like the car was attached to the track via a rail system. You could make up for all your entry and line mistakes with massive horsepower and with rear downforce so strong...even throttle modulation was child's play. The guys who drive these modern open wheel marvels of technology are whimps. Let me see them handle a 3500 lb, fire breathing V8 on a tight road course (like Sears)....then I might consider them to be "race car drivers".....until then...they are whimps! Why would I then want to drive one of these "whimp cars" in a racing simulation? Geeeeez...that'd be about as much fun as watching Sierra.com Talladega "pick up race" replays. All you GP3 sim driver whimps out there.....get yourself a real racing simulation.....buy N4. Let me see you turn a 95 (mph) at Sears...or a 117 (mph) at Watkins....then you can call yourself a sim driver. Until then....your just a sim racing driver "wanna be"....playing "games" on your PC. Isn't there a new newsgroup, "rec.autos.simulator.whimps?" Could you guys "stay on the porch" and move over there.....and leave r.a.s. for the rest of us "big dogs?" We've got serious racin' stuff to talk about here. You guys can discuss where you're having your nails done next week....over on r.a.s.w! Thanks...... Francois Menard

That was really unexpected, just woke up and saw this. Anyway, I prefer Icr2 over GPL and N4 <G>. Okay perhaps it's not realistic, but Icr2 reminds me perfectly of 1980's Formula One. -- -- Fran�ois M�nard <ymenard> -- May the Downforce be with you... -- http://www.ymenard.com/ -- This announcement is brought to you by the Shimato Dominguez Corporation - helping America into the New World...
