Just dreaming, but wouldn�t it be nice to have a new CART game with the GPL engine, now that CART has opened to the international market, and with lower number of cars than NASCAR maybe it�s possible to port the engine!. Woudln�t be so bad for Papy to get back to their roots (Indycar Racing) and we "CART fans", forget that horrible "CART Precision Racing"? lito Caracas, Venezuela * Sent from AltaVista http://www.altavista.com Where you can also find related Web Pages, Images, Audios, Videos, News, and Shopping.

I'd imagine a CART sim is next in line after Nascar Racing 4 from Papy. (?) Hopefully not another Legends game... ds lito wrote in message <[email hidden]>...

Roland, I used your CART tracks for a long time, doing much the same as Morgan, turning GP2 into a quasi-CART sim. Thanks for the great work! -- don New GPL Programs for the Converted Tracks: http://www.ianparker1.freeserve.co.uk/gpl/index.html http://www2.tpg.com.au/users/brucek/hmrc/index.htm

Encouraging news! ::( Ah well, I'd be happy with a late-70s or early- 80s GPL2.

That idea is about as original as creating a banked Monza for GPL :)) Andre

Just dreaming, but wouldn�t it be nice to have a new CART game with the GPL engine Yea but it would be better to have a CART sim with a Nascar Heat type engine, gives me a much greater feeling of driving a car than GPL. That's not to say that GPL isn't more difficult to drive than NH but that doesn't make it more realistic. SteveP

Well that's an original thought. <sarcasm> :) Yeah, we need a better CART sim. Currently I'm using GP2 with all of the user-made CART road courses to sort of simulate CART. -- ----------------------------------- Morgan Vincent Wooten GPLRank: +16.84 mailto:[email hidden] http://members.tripod.com/~morganv/ ----------------------------------- lito <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > Just dreaming, but wouldn�t it be nice to have a new CART > game with the GPL engine, now that CART has opened to the > international market, and with lower number of cars than > NASCAR maybe it�s possible to port the engine!.

Cool, someone is still using my tracks! :-O And yes, of course a GPL-engined CART sim would be THE BEST! Roland 'Romeo_the_CART_track_builder_of_GP2' Ehnstr�m [email hidden] Morgan V.
