GPL-related birthday wish (sort of)

3 posts by 3 people · 27 Apr 2000 - 01 May 2000 10:31 UTC

Hi all, It�s very late, I�ve written way too much about the Internet in Poland (don�t even ask), and my birthday is coming up soon. Anyway, what I want for my birthday is a game that uses the GPL engine (or something just as good), but lets me race a 1970 Porsche 917K (I�ve got one on my monitor, and I�ve stared at it too long). Tracks could of course include Le Mans, but also the tracks used for the long distance races of the day such as Spa, Nurburgring etc. Oh, and if it�s not to much bother, other period cars would also be nice, such as the Ferrari 512S and that funny-looking blue Matra. Would anybody else be even remotely interested in that? And has this subject already been beaten to death with the proverbial roll of kitchen tissue? If so, please forgive me.

I think we all would want that :) But if you're interested in Porsches, be sure to get Porsche 2000, it's great! Andre PS What about the internet connection in Poland? Is it that good? :) Andre On Thu, 27 Apr 2000 01:46:22 +0100, "Soren Sarstrup" <[email hidden]> wrote:

It's good fun, but it doesn't have the sweetest of them all, the 917 (And no 959, either, but at least that's on the list of cars that will be available for download in the future). -- Anssi
