I've been playing Nascar1 for a long time time offline only....I play 1-2 hours every night in the evening....I recently received Nascar2 for Christmas and really like the game despite any bugs there may be....HOWEVER, I would really like to have a Save Race feature....I have to limit the time I play this game now because I can't save a race....I usually race at 50-60% in race length, which usually takes me 1 1/2 to 2 hours a night...It usually takes to 2 days to complete a race....But, now I can't continue to do this....This game is only Realistic if you race LONG races....How can I achieve this with no SAVE RACE feature....It seems Papyrus wanted to implement a real race situation in Nascar2, more so than in Nascar1....I realize that you are extremely busy, but is there anyway we can get a patch for just the save race only....work on the other bugs later....PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE. If it's "Real Nascar Situations" you wanted to accomplish, then how with NO SAVE RACE...Do we just race at 10% of the actual length of a race...I'm sorry but I'd like to pit more than once before I finish a race...... Thank You! Jeff Hedges "No Race car Number" "No Nickname" "No member of online race series" "No member of a race team" ....come on Tony Johns help us out.....

Jeff, thanks for saving me some typing... This is EXACTLY how I feel about this. There must be a way to patch this so that non-modem racers can save races, without contributing to the online "cheating". Anyone from Papyrus that wants to "toss" some ideas around about this (in strictest confidence), feel free to do so. I REALLY miss this feature. Thanks.

I've read more than my share of "I'm sick of Papyrus" and "The program stinks." Let me ask you this... how many software product's first public releases were bug free???????????????????????????????????????? It comes with the territory! Windows95 was well-associated with bugs when it was first released ... Doom, Doom II, Quake, Duke Nukem, and Myst to name just a couple. Give 'em a break will ya... they're reading our posts and working on the problems! It can't be done overnight people. I personally find Nascar 2 a very good simulation and have no problem "living" with the present bugs... after all, they'll be gone in time!
----<snip>--- ---<snip>--- ---<snip>-- ---<snip>--- Same thing here, and more, dear Sierra-Pappy please note that I will NOT buy the game UNTIL there is such a patch, because to me it seems a bit ridiculous NOT to include such a feature, after all WE are the CLIENTS and WE should decide if we want to save or not to save. And I'd like to have someone explain to me how can a save game can let you cheat in an online race !!! Anyhow I've tried the demo great racing sim but again, dear Pappy, NO SAVE, NO SALE John

I just wanted to add my name to the "list", in case it is worth something. Bye, Luca
