Drivers: I was getting a little concerned over the early reporting of FASTLAP 97 as the Fords were dominating "UNRSETRICTED" races and the Chevies were dominating "Dega". So I talked to one of the "GODS" of NASCAR racing and said ok.. What is going on. He told me the Chevies drivers had been instructed not to go fast at all the tracks except DEGA for fear of a manufactures PENALTY. I laughed as he was pulling my leg as usual. Than I contacted the "SUPER" team of Smokkinu, smokkinu and smookinu otherwise know as Dave G, Robert P, and Mark Carney. I assigned them the task of beating the Fords, they did it. I even asked POOR Mark to drive a Pontiac as it had wallered down down in all the page rankings. Well I have good news to report and that is the SUPER TEAM has restored my faith in PAPYRUS and the NASCAR 2 game. Notice that the two tracks below have all 3 mfg in 1-3 postions at a couple of tracks. And notice that Hell thats even getting in Alec Flory Territory (Still hasnt reported his laps) Sorry Alec F I couldnt resist.. Oh well, Peace and Harmony has been restored now and we can all go racing at NRO !!!! Don Wilshe, IVGA PS. FASTLAP 97 still has Pat Dotson ranked as the #1 driver for all 16 tracks!!! PSS. SMOKKINU SUPER TEAM (SST) is on top in the with a healthy .331 lead. [link lost in import] IVGA - GATEWAY to AUTO-SIMUIATION RACING!!!

I've had this question since I purchased N2 about a month ago. What really is the difference between the manufacturers in game terms? Anyone know? I found some comparative info on NASCAR.COM that shows the fairly significant differences between the horsepower and torque of the 3 engines. Is this modeled in the game? For that matter, are the aerodynamic differences modeled as well? Thanks, Phil D. > Drivers: > I was getting a little concerned over the early reporting of FASTLAP 97 > as the Fords were > dominating "UNRSETRICTED" races and the Chevies were dominating "Dega". <snip> > at a couple of tracks. > And notice that <snip> > Don Wilshe, IVGA <snip the 2nd longest sig I've ever seen>
