Okay, I REALLY don't want to wade into the whole IRL versus CART controversy, but is anybody besides me interested in the possibility of a new IRL sim? If so, how does an IRL sim based on the NASCAR Heat game physics engine sound to you? Well that's just what I'm working on at the moment -- I'm calling it the "IRL Heat" project, and it will be a total IRL conversion for NASCAR Heat. Sound interesting now? If so, then check this out: http://www.simracing.org/ubb/Forum3/HTML/000179.html FWIW, before you decide to unleash any inane diatribes against the IRL and Tony George, or start spouting about how CART is better than the IRL, keep in mind that I'm the one who's developed the CART chassis physics for the CART2K conversion for F1 2000 and F1CS2K, and I have been sharing that CART physics info with the folks who are working on the "CART Heat" project. So, if you lust for a CART sim, please refrain from lapsing into the inane here, lest ye piss me off and scuttle any chances of me helping out any further on those CART efforts. In other words, let's stay on-topic for a change, shall we? <G> ;-) So, whaddaya think about "IRL Heat"? -- JB F1CS2K Rank Handicap 59.118 http://f1cs2krank.dhs.org/

Awesome John! I don't own NASCAR Heat, but would buy it to have an updated IRL sim! Jay J "John Bodin" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Plus, it's got a VERY realistic driving model, and a neat "Beat the Heat" mode that puts you in the driver's seat for various racing scenarios (drafting practice, moving up in the pack to finish 3rd or better, etc.) -- lots of fun to be had! The IRL patch will be THE icing on the cake, though! ;-) -- JB F1CS2K Rank Handicap 59.118 http://f1cs2krank.dhs.org/
