Anybody know what's up with the Prima Nascar Racing 4 Strategy Guide? The reference to it on their website is gone and Amazon doesn't list it anymore?
The guy who wrote the book bought the sim and found out that he couldn't fake it like he did in the last edition. <G> Gavel John J.

Or it didn't run. :) Sorry, I couldn't resist, it runs fine on my machine. Nick gavel wrote:

They *were* going to have me write it (after I, ah, experienced "The Richard Petty Experience"--sounds like a girls' soccer team), but nooooooooooo............. (The guy who was keen on having me pen the strategy guide got canned.) --Steve gavel <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > The guy who wrote the book bought the sim and found out that he couldn't > fake it like he did in the last edition. <G> > Gavel > John J.

I don't remember who did it, but the very first one - for N1, was pretty darn good, included a cd-rom with some utilities and links as well. I agree, I think Steve would have been great for this. -- Don Burnette "gavel" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > You should have anyway. It'd have been good.

You should have anyway. It'd have been good. Actually the only one I ever bought was one for Nascar 2, I think. Not much to chew on in those books.

I still have the N1 one, and will keep it for a long time - it's autographed by Ward Burton. :) Right after he beat DE to the line for his first win... Don Burnette wrote:

You know, I looked around and I do have the N1 book with the cd. LOL. The info wasn't anything that couldn't have been had on the net at the time. The N2 version was fairly poor. The guys' name was a bit familiar but not from racing online. Never saw him on Hawaii or TEN. Would have been great to get a "Smith" guide for N4. Though Rodney Arndt's piece is an excellent guide. Gavel P.s. Don, you ever mow that lawn? <VBSEG> Don Burnette <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:pBHi6.281344$[email hidden]...
