Edward Smit 06 Aug 1995#303949
I am a complete motor racing freak, especially F1GP, Indycar and Nascar motor racing simulators. I have battled to find a more realistic control than the keyboard or joystick throughout the world, (+_ three years ago) and could not suceed. I then decided to make my own and experimented with many prototypes before perfecting it. Myself and my brother race, e.g. F1gp against one another till the sweat starts pouring down, and we fight it out neck on neck till the end. With the new controls it is frightning how realistic it is. Everyone who tests it can not believe it and with so many people so keen to race with it, you are only limited to two drivers. With all the network games available, I can't believe that there is not enough interest in the field to create one motor racing simulator with a network option, i.e (more than 2 players), yet!! Just imagine fighting it out amoungst 15 - 20 friends. Just imagine how realistic that would feel. Is there anyone else that shares my views or maby knows something that I don't. Desperate. -- Edward Smith Smith's Auto Engineers

Currently Papyrus is nearing the end of a Beta-Test of a dial-up service which will allow many people (not sure the exact number) call up and play Nascar online. As for your control problems, there are several very good steering-wheel/pedal combo products on the market with the easiest to find being the T1 steering-wheel/pedal from Thrustmaster. They provide *EXCELLENT* support and it can be found at Chips & Bits, for about $109 US.
