>Yes I ordered NASCAR2 today at http://www.sierra.com/ NASCAR 2 will not be available until the fall. You may be able to order it on Sierra's web page, but you won't get it until November. Sorry! Ed Martin Producer, Series Director NASCAR Racing League Papyrus / Sierra On-Line, Inc.

Because some folks are actually stupid/rich enough to want to order it. They are'nt forcing anyone to order it, I guess it's kind of like " hand holding " -- Get the picture? -- JP
>Yes I ordered NASCAR2 today at http://www.sierra.com/ Yes, and while you will be paying $54.95 plus shipping and handling, I will be driving to the local computer store a few weeks after N2 is released, and be paying $10 less WITHOUT S/H. My very serious suggestion to you is to cancel that order and be patient for the sim to be released in the stores.
Doh! REALLY!? Maybe it's just ME, but it really pisses me off when companies are trying to scam sales from the retail stores by giving the appearance that a product is available now when it is in fact, several months from release. RD

Ever hear of interest?? Figure a couple million bucks at 5-10%, nice pay check for selling vaporware.....
