Hey all, I haven't picked up N4 yet but am starting to consider it after all these raves. I was really into GPL, but now only occasionally race online. WSC can't come soon enuogh as far as I'm concerned. Here's my question. I know that Nascar races on 2 road tracks and wonder if anybody actually races these online. With the improved physics it could almost be like a poor man's WSC. Are there any more road tracks available for N4 as well? I tend to race late at night and I remember the only open races with N3 were usually at Talledega and never on a road course. If it's still like that than I probably wouldn't buy it and just stay with GPL and pray for early release for WSC. Thanks in Advance Jcharm
Yup, N3, N4 AND Nascar Heat see very little road racing. I might point you to the tptcc league at the uspits.com. They race a patched N3 still but use many differnt tracks like the Oring and the OLD Glen. If road racing is your forte...these guys run both offline and a weekly online league. I'm sure they also will eventually migrate to N4. dave henrie "Jcharm" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:NMdq6.40515$[email hidden]... > Hey all, > > I haven't picked up N4 yet but am starting to consider it after all these > raves.

I think with the warping,over-stated reaction to nudging,and eratic driver's, the road courses of N-4 would be more pain than pleasure online....... Just my Opinion someotherdude <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I am passable on the Glen but Sear's Point is a very exhausting track to drive since there isn't any sort of long straight where you can relax for a moment. I liked RR and LOVED Bull Run.
