Has anybody tried ABC Sports IRL Racing? Comes with Indy. Just wondering how it compares to ICR2 before I waste $30. Thanks.

You have got to be kidding me. Could you please tell me in what way ABC Road to Indy is a better game than Papyrus Indycar 2(now called CART Racing)? Don Chapman

It is a better GAME, ICR2 is a better *SIM*... ABC is in no way a sim.. -- Dave Otterness

Tony, not to mince words, but are you out of your mind? How is this game better than one of the few realistic racing sims available. Where is the damage model? Where is the AI? The graphics are mediocre at best. The whole thing plays like some console game. I'll bite, but expalin why ABC is better. I buy every driving sim (game?)on the market and consider Road to Indy almost unplayable, but I had to have the Brickyard. All the best, Mike Davis -- Michael S.

If you are going to post sarcasm then you had better indicate it somewhere in the message. This poor guy might take you seriously. On the slim chance you were serious and actually liked ABC - you are one sick puppy and should be banned from this newsgroup as the only thing ABC simulates is an IRL encylopedia. There isn't one byte of realism in this ...ahem...."game".

I have it and it sure needs work, lots of potential but try cart racing or icr2 first!

Well said... Someone should start a new newsgroup called rec.autos.games for the likes of ABC IRL, NFS-2, X-Car, etc. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy 'em... but they're not a SIM... Ed

Sorry but it's total CRAP. Do yourself a favor and don't buy it. #1 Race sim fan,
