I fail to see your logic here Robert. Because Papy is still making N4, they can't have Daytona or Pocono? How do you come to that conclusion? And by the way, your name is spelled Robert, not Roebrt.....<G> -/-WW "Robert Platts" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... > since papy is still making N4 I wouldn't count on it or pocono :) > > > Roebrt > >

i think that sierra wont give papy the money to get the license to daytona. think about it, ea and hasbro are full of cash because they make like 50 other games. papy only makes about one to two titles a year, and knowing that sierra is cheap (yeah, im sure it cost sierra $50 to make N3) they probably might not want to cough up the money!

Well it's like a modern F1 simulator without Monaco, or a historical F1 sim without the Nurburgring, or even worse.. a IRL title without Indy!

Maybe not! We might get a big surprise :) I think Papy want's Daytona in N4 just as bad as we do. Maybe they can make it happen... --David Cook

What exactly do we think is required to make this happen? Obviously the "exclusive license" excuse is no longer as other titles will have Daytona. How could Sierra/Papy NOT get Daytona if all the other companies get it? The only way I can see them not getting it is if Sierra won't cough-up the $$. We know the Papy folks want it in as badly as we all do. What do you think? Marc. "David L.

Easy to come to that conclusion WW. It's called licensing. The reason why there's never been Daytona in any of the Nascar sims and Pocono since N2 is that Papy couldn't get the licenses for those tracks. -- Michael Horton GPL F2/F3 Hotlaps and Other Downloadables http://www.bus.nait.ab.ca/staff/mikeh/gpl

From what I heard from the engineers at E3 they are planning on Daytona for N4....I did not ask about Pocono On 01 Jun 2000 19:29:43 GMT, [email hidden] (Ray127611) wrote: >ok....NASCAR Heat and NASCAR 2001 will have Daytona....what about NASCAR Racing >4?!?!?
