Isn't Cart Racing the same thing as IndyCar Racing II? I've got ICR2 and love it. Lots of fun. The physics are not up to par with GPL (surprise?), but there was enough there to keep me having a blast for quite some time. You can't spin the wheels like you can in GPL, so ICR2 is much easier to control. The weight transfer effects are there, and tinkering with camber, wings, and shocks (no spring settings) kept me busy for a long time trying to get those hotlaps. I've never played Monaco Grand Prix 2, so I can't compare it to ICR2. I'm sure there's a Cart demo out there. Might be worth a gander. Todd Wasson

After spending countless hours with GPL I'm very impressed with the physics model, and was wondering if anyone has messed with Papy's CART sim? I've tried Monaco Grand Prix 2, but basically it's pretty lame IMHOP. Opinions appreciated.Thanx in advance.

F1 2000 has the best modern F1 physics.
