I have a question about Daytona and Papyrus,that I don't believe anyone has asked,if so I missed it.Ok here it is I went to Daytona USA toward the end of last year(the attraction) and yes they have a sim racing game Called Daytona qualifing and yes it is Daytona down to the last dotted line on the track and is a great sim.But my question is payrus made this for Daytona USA correct?I was just wondering how Papyrus feels about putting all the time and money they put in to make this for Daytona and then to get the snub by them when it came around to rights time between Papy and Sega,especially with the horriable job Sega has done with thier represtation of Daytona and the great job Papy has done in Nascar 1 and Nascar 2 and for the Sim at Daytona USA.From my view papy kicks Segas ASS!!!!!!!!!! and to hell with Daytona and Bill France let them have thier track and let crappy ass Sega do another crappy version of the track.Because from what I have seen Daytona and Bill France are the ones losing out because from what I have seen Nascar 2 and even Nascar 1 is kicking Sega's Daytona USA game away in the sales department let alone game play and and graphics and review's departments. So how do you feel Papy about how you were done,I'd be very ticked off myself. Just my 2 cents GT86 Robert Platts

Most of the Saturns sold (nearly 2 million) comes with DaytonaUSA, not to mention pretty much every arcade has it as well. The Papyrus sims can never hope to catch up. I'm sure Papy wanted to get Daytona for us, but there is no way they could out-bit Sega for the rights. It boils down to who has more money to offer (hint... it's not Papy). -- http://ebusch.akorn.net

Maybe when(and if) the NROS starts and gathers all the attention it should, things will change. I know its acouple of years until the rights come up again, but if the NROS is running stong and attracted hundreds of thousands of participates(figuring all skill levels and classes) it would probably be alittle more likely that Papy would have a shot at the rights. Maybe not. IMHO if the NROS does truely become an official Nascar sanctioned league it would be more apealing for Daytona&Indy to be included as far as the owners would be concerned. I could be way off, just my thoughts. Jay Taylor
