John, since you seem to be the only person who knows anything about F1GP2, could you please tell us when you "think" it will be released? Thanks in advance for any reply. SRN is great! Keep up the good work!
writes Hi Roger, FWIW, officially I don't know any more than anyone else. The date of Friday July 12th looks good, and if the GP2 sweepstake was still going that's where I'd be putting my money based on what I've heard. However, I don't know much about duplicating, but we seem to be getting AWFUL close.....I have my fingers crossed! Thanks, we're trying :) Cheers! John (also hoping for the final GP2 asap!) _________________________________ __ _____| |_____ __ _________| |__| :| John Wallace | |__| |_________ \ :| |::| :| Team WW Racing TSW | |::| | / > :| |::| :|_________________________________| |::| | < / :|__|::|____:/ Sim Racing News \.____|::|__| \ /_______:/ \::/ http://sneezy.dcn.ed.ac.uk/simnews/index.htm\::/ \._______\

My BIG question John is this. Will you be able to keep the excellent SRN up to date when F1GP2 is released? Karl Team 'Dobe' Nass '96 BGN 'B'
Are you kidding!? I've been waiting for this for years, and there's going to be an explosion of leagues, add-ons, hotlap charts, car paintkits (being worked on already :) !!) and all kinds of stuff. I reckon I'll probably take a break from playing around October or so. Dave Gymer's going to need an army to handle all the HOF and league stuff, and I can see Jed needing a truckload of staff too (not to mention FTP space)! It's a bit like shops gearing up for Christmas. No, hopefully it'll be business as usual, but I'll be running in a GP2 league as well as the ICR2 one I'm in at the moment so time will be tight! I'll send you some of the product updates to cover okay? ;) Cheers!

[...] Well, I'm going to strictly limit myself to running the LFRS and other mailing lists and HOF2, and I've already started assembling a band of naive^H^H^H^H^Hmerry victims^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hhelpers to do things like translating the HOF rules into other languages, helping to authenticate laps. do the washing up, make the tea, and so on. Speaking of which, would anyone out there in Usenet land be prepared to volunteer to translate the HOF2 rules (when I write them!) into any of the following languages? - German - Spanish - American (okay, just kidding!) - Finnish Volunteers for other obscure languages will also be considered. I already have volunteers for French and Dutch. --

Sure, I'd love to cover some of it. My only fear is, if F1GP2 is anywhere near as good as it seems it will be, I'll have to drop out of my NASSCAR league and forget about ICR2 completely. Should I be happy or sad about this? Karl Team 'Dobe'
