Hi all, because there will be a Finn racing next season in CART (JJ Lehto), I cannot avoid being interested also in CART (I guess I'm quite F1 pro, and, ... well, still I'm ..., but there is now also another interest :-) I happened to buy the old ICR (1) some years ago, and even that seems to be quite fun to play/drive, but today I also ordered the CART (by (?)) (the ICR2 with a new name, anyhow?). Already the ICR1 was quite well done ... even with the old fashioned graphics the feeling and exitement of driving was great. And soon I'll get the CART (ICR2). I guess there are pros and cons to that, and to Microsoft's new alternative; which one really is better? Without 3D-card I guess that CART (ICR?) is a good choice? Any other good hints for info about CART (the real one) and CART (the simulated one) ? Arto Wikla

CPR is from Microsoft ... a definite turn off!!!!!! www.cart.com is a great site with lots of info. That is where I first learned of Lehto's signing, Tracy moving to Team Green with Ribeiro, The Houston race in 1998, FedEx becoming the major sponsor etc etc. Hey when will Finland get its own CART race?? We have our own race but no Australian driver as yet ... maybe next year. Cheers!! Craig

CART by papyrus is icr2, and a couple of years old. CART Precision Racing is by MS and is brand new, up to date etc. Works as well as any MS software by all accounts. It was great, and I think icr2 is better. Yes, I would have thought so. I have a rendition card which makes icr2 better, but other 3dfx cards won't affect it. I haven't tried CART PR and probably won't after reading about it here. I'm playing F1RS for now. ICR2 haas to be one of the most supported games on the web (well behind all the id games of course). Try www.theuspits.com and go from there. Brian -- remove 'bye' from address to reply

I seem to remember the Black Saubers were always near a MA wreck..dave henrie
