Dont worry Adam, I think these guys are willing to wait for it! We know you guys dont take shortcuts and we appreciate your honesty. I think its great you guys communicate in this post! It builds a wonderful customer basis. I would rather wait another year if thats what it takes to complete it! You dont know how irritating it is to wait so long for a F1 SIM that beefs up all this BS hipe and quality just to find out the reason the modem link sucks as bad as it does is because some idiot said: "hey, we havfta have this sim out by "whenever', so lets just use a modem link from "this" other game". I think we both know this is a plain example of Half-ASS!! Keep up the good work at PAPY and please make sure that modem link will run the game as fast as it runs alone! This is not only the "information age". Its also the "INTERACTIVE AGE"!! Thanks Adam! We'll wait!! -David Gary

Hey Guys, Look at it this way, Adam would be the first one to tell you if Nascar2 was out or not! You guys havfta understand the Bozos that work at Comp USA, Circuit City, Best Buy, etc. ,etc. Most of these Boneheads are high school kids that dont have a clue about whats on their shelves. Hell, everytime I go to one of these places I have to find the *** myself, These kids have told me more than once that they didnt carry what I was looking for and more than once I found it in their store and showed it to them, Take their comments with a grain of salt because when you making minimum wage its amazing to think you know what your talking about! Hell I dont blame them for stupidity. If I made $4.35 and hour I would be Mr. "DUH" too!! -David Gary

I did not post this nonsense, I was just quoting it in my reply. David You're only young once, but you can stay immature forever.

And if anyone believes that person that Nascar 2 is out I have a few copies of Windows 2000 for sale. -- The wise man can pick up a grain of sand and envision a whole universe, but the stupid man will just lay down on some seaweed and roll around until he's completely draped in it.

No way you could have it. I live in Dayton and went to the store. They have never had it and said that you did not get it from them They called there headquarters and verified that no shipments have been shipped to any COMP USA store. > > > > You know it's quite interesting that because of this letter you > > > >posted a couple of us are getting our butts flamed all over the place, > > > >you really should get this straightened out.
