All it shows it a picture of a track that has "Daytona" written on the wall. It could be just Talladega with "Daytona" put on the walls.

Let's start another BIG thread here. If SEGA renewed their rights for the Daytona track license, does it mean that Papyrus/Sierra just let now the chance for us to have the track for N2??? So now it will be impossible for us to drive Daytona or the Brickyard for N2, except from 3th party utilities? I just hope that Papyrus IS TRYING to speak with NASCAR and IMS to make an exception for N2. 'Cause the only thing that will happen if Papyrus doesn't have the license for Daytona and/or Indy is that SimRacers WILL AT 100% sure make a track illegaly. THEY WILL. So I hope that if someones makes here a Daytona track for N2 nobody will shout the news outside r.a.s. and Simracing Website. I don't think that NASCAR check r.a.s. to see if we have illegal tracks of a racing game. They probably don't know how redneck and how serious we take simulation racing games. So to not make any trouble it's time to shut our mouth and don't tell a word outside the simracing communauty (like for Gerhard's converters). I just hope that maybe one day NASCAR will discover that simracing games are very important for marketing the winston cup. I never watched a winston cup race before Nascar1 came out. It's only after that I told to myself "Hey littl'boy, It's time to move 'r ***out of the PC screen to watch how good those drivers are in reality". And to see who the heck was this guy in the #24Dupont car that was always winning in the game :) . Thanks a lot, Good race at the Brickyard, SPEED- http://www.nascarnet.com/~speed |!

I don't know if I agree with all of this, but I will say that I'm one carpetbagging Northener who barely paid attention to Winston Cup before N1 and I have since become monsterous fan. I've bought tickets, and I've bought all the merchandise (well more than enough anyway<G>) and I've started a two fanatsy leagues (one for Busch), and I even signed my radio station on to MRN and broadcast the races...all because of N1...As a stick and ball guy, I've always been impressed with how everyone in NASCAR works for the greater good, and for the betterment and advancement of the Series because they realize that that's how they all prosper (unlike my other sports!). It would seem, that something could be worked out, especially since SEGA's Daytona and N2 are hardly competing for the same customers. Wiser heads should prevail here, but I have my doubts.....

Im witcha der' Mike, I am a big "open-wheel" fanatic and if it wasnt for N1 I wouldnt have ever started watching NASCAR. I am very attached to the "Boxcars" now on Sunday! =8>] -DG-

I'm not a "carpetbagging Northerner", but rather a native Southerner. But I can say the same as some others: I barely paid attention to Winston Cup before Nascar 1. I got the game because I thought it would be fun to crash other cars. Then I got the game and saw that it wasn't a game at all, but a simulation. After reading through the game manual, I thought to myself, "I need to start watching Winston Cup". I had watched a few races over the years and can remember growing up and hearing the names of Richard Petty, Cale Yarbrough, Buddy Baker, David Peason, etc., but never paying much attention beyond that. In 1994, I watched a few races (it was July or August 94 when I bought N1, can't remember exactly). In 1995, I watched a few more. In 1996, I watched the entire season from start to finish. The same goes for '97, I've went to my first race (Interstate Batteries 500) and I own NASCAR merchandise. NASCAR 1 is a great way to get people to start watching Winston Cup. I never would have thought without reading this group that there was anyone like me (who started watching NASCAR because of the game, instead of getting the game because they were a NASCAR fan). Just remember the old saying, "Money talks and Bullshit Walks." NASCAR will go where the dollars are. So if you don't want Sega controlling Daytona, stop buying Sega products!

The reason for the trademarks are because of the billboards coming out of turn two at Darlington: Daytona USA adverti***t.

Your -so- right. I would be willing to bet that Eurosport wouldn't be showing Winston Cup over here if it hadn't been for Papyrus (well, maybe that's going a -bit- far - maybe a certain Tom Cruise flick had something to do with it!). One thing that -is- a fact is that my US holiday this year would be about 800 pounds cheaper if I'd never come across Papyrus. Internal flights, cars, hotels and race tickets fot the October C***te event! I think we -deserve- Daytona and Indianapolis :-) -- Mark, Reading, UK You want N2 Laptimes, Links and other garbage auto sim related? http://freespace.***.net/mark.davison/n2stuff.htm
