Sierra's Daytona Track

Well now we know Sierra has the Daytona track.If you watched the Daytona 500 pre-race show,they showed Jeff gordon racing on it at the Daytona USA center.It looks very promising.Now if Sega will just give up their liscense<sp>Sierra could have the track out in no time. My $0.02 worth.G O G O R D O N !!!!!!

Sega just recently extended their exclusive rights to Daytona for a few more years. It's doubtful Papyrus will get a chance to use the track anytime soon. -- The IWCCCARS Project: Q & A Representative http://www.theuspits.com/iwcccars/index.html http://userwww.service.emory.edu/~ebusch/

How is it that The Daytona Speedway, can use Nascar 1 as a simulator, use their Daytona Track at their exhibit hall, and continue to sell the rights to SEGA? Isn't that a conflict of interest?

That version was never created for distribution, so you really don't have a conflict of interest. -- The IWCCCARS Project: Q & A Representative http://www.theuspits.com/iwcccars/index.html http://userwww.service.emory.edu/~ebusch/

Nod, I remember reading in here some time ago, Papyrus said that the Daytona Track at "Daytona USA" was developed for the Daytona Attraction only and that there where no plans to do anything else with it. A bummer... we'll see Daytona one of these days :)

As if this hasn't been answered a hundred times before here we go again. Papyrus was asked to make Daytona for Daytona USA and for that reason only. We won't see Daytona for a while because Sega has renewed their "exclusive rights" liscence agreement with Daytona. -- Cowen Wilson ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---- http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/7137 > > Well now we know Sierra has the Daytona track.If you watched the > > Daytona 500 pre-race show,they showed Jeff gordon racing on it at > > the Daytona USA center.It looks very promising.Now if Sega will just > > give up their liscense<sp>Sierra could have the track out in no time. > > My $0.02 worth.G O G O R D O N !!!!!! > Ya...

They had these simulators last year when they opened the museum. And of course, all the Papyrus fans fussed that since Papyrus made the Daytona track for them, why couldn't we get a copy. It was a special situation. I've read lately that Sega has the rights for a few more years. WHY? They use the name loosely in their game since Sega Daytona looks nothing like the real track. How many of you saw the mountain in Turn One? How about the*** plants?

no it is n2, because the surface is white. I don't know if it is dega or daytona. Probably dega

Didn't they show that Skinner guy racing nascar 1 during the race. looked like nascar 1, the gear thing on the left. I couldn't tell if it was daytona though. --Sam

Was at Daytona USA first week of January 97 during vacation. Played the simulator, looked liked Daytona to me, worked liked NASCAR 1. Seems that there was some discussion on this newsgroup when Daytona USA first opened, that it looks and runs like NASCAR 1 but it was not really compatible. Of course, this could all be BS. BTW, saw the Chevy team practicing when I was there, had a ball. Glenn Jones

It's N1, I drove it. Papyrus says its not compatable with N1 but its definitely not N2. It is the Daytona track. Mike

Guess the idiots over at SEGA were smoking something strong when they made their visit to South Florida. -- Todo Es Justo En Amor Y Carreras. The Rusty Wallace Miller Lite stock car, awsome when opened up! GO#2! Mullins Motorsports Inc. http://www.***tron.com/~ddmj
