>Va Funculu! do you want a low quality piece of rat turd (ie any american >hick racing biased product from papyrus), I spit Beer & Tobbaco juice in your general direction Ya wine and cheese lovin F1er. But seriously think about what ya posted here if Papyrus never came out with Nascar racing and Icr2 you would have never seen a f1gp2 at all more then likely. Just be glad for people like Papy and MP for bringing us true to life as possible racing sims. SD

: >> : >IT'S OUT!!! It is out of my mind. Long live Papyrus. : Traitor Well, this maybe a little strong (both sides). I am a racing fan, period. I enjoy NASCAR, Indy and F1. Though I must admit that the last few years of F1 have been rather uncompetitive. I own F1, Indianapolis 500, IndyCar, NASCAR, IndyCar II, Accolades' Gran Prix and a few others. The jury is still out on GPII. I will look at the product when it is done and make my judgement then. In the meantime, I am enjoying the Heck out of IndyCar Racing II. In honor of the season, lighten up folks! -- **************************** Michael E.

Of course we woudl have, its the natural flow of things, i am just pissed at papy for not developgin F1 racing, instead going back to a racing series they already made icr2 should have been f1r v1.0 Lets face it they are biased to hick racing. : SD -- Beavis & Butt-Head are not role models.

Hey Shithead, Ya know, it's no wonder that Carleton has a reputation as the worst university in Canada when it lets ***ing idiots like you loose on the airwaves. I'll take "hick" racing any day over elitist, Eurotrash ***like F1, especially if folks like you are an example of the type I would have to associate with. Candidate for Engsoc Board of Governors? At Carleton? And you're proud enough of that to put it in a sig? You must be ***ing strange, man!

Yes they shoudl, becuase Formula 1 games are logn due for an update, indycar WASNT if they focused on F1R V1.0 and then did an engine upgrade for ICR after F1R i wouldnt mind. Microprose held no license as i understood, in fact to avoid a license they made upa bunch of team names, and driver names. If they coudlnt due to licensing how do you explain the few sucky loser F1 games that came out AFTER F1GP? Because then you see some REALLY heavy competition and the result is two products better than either company would have done before they went head tohead. I would buy F1GP v2.0 but then, i am eurpean born, and raised, besides F1 is SOOOOO much cooler than indycars (i hate ovals for example) But thats just me Hehe no but it coud fittingly be called rec.sport.autos.simulators.advocacy with the flames we see there > -- > **************************** Michael E.
