Is there REALLY a N2 track pack or patch coming out soon? I would like some concrete (excuse the weak pun) information about this, not just rumors or speculation. Is there going to be Daytona and/or Indy on it? What WILL be on it? Does someone out at Papyrus know yet when it will be released. And by the way, what's the status on ICR2? Thanks, Scott

: And by the way, what's the status on ICR2? Last I heard ICR2 is out. It's out in KENTUCKY! It's out in FLORIDA!!! It's out in IOWA!!! It's out in........ Sorry, just a bad flash back.

am still having trouble with the ones that came with it :) But more is better, right? >: And by the way, what's the status on ICR2? >Last I heard ICR2 is out. It's out in KENTUCKY!

It's more for the sporty-car crowd, but has some ovals (Nazareth, Milwaukee, Michigan, Loudon). All the tracks can be converted to NASCAR 1 (NOT NASCAR 2) so if you have N1 and ICR2, you can really have a blast! Imagine racing a 3500-lb. Winston Cup xcar through the streets of Detroit...!

Darn those Papyrus guys to hell! They released it in Europe a week earlier! Oh, sorry, me too.

A few answers, I think. Yes, Sierra is definitely working on a patch to N2. This has been posted here by the guys working on it. No date announced (a smart move considering past history). Daytona and Indy would not be on any patch, don't even hope. Maybe a new Track Pack later, but the odds for that are slim IMHO. The patch will most likely include a SAVE RACE option, along with fixes for the most common bugs. It seems that ICR2 is a dead issue with Sierra. I hope that's not the case, but that it general opinion on the newsgroup at this time.

You would think (or hope) that if there is a future track pack for N2 that it would at least have Texas, California, an updated Atlanta, and perhaps even the Suzuka track. These tracks I would believe are all available for Papyrus to create without the legal fuss like Daytona and Indy. If they did do these though, it probobly would not be available until Christmas or beyond since they are all "new" and have held no races. SB
