I just bought the SODA Off Road Racing, and man, I must tell you, it is awesome!! Do any companies have any plans to release a drag racing sim? The closest thing that I know of is the drag strip on Test Drive 4, and that game bites! If any of you people have pull with software companies, please--- an NHRA game, soon?? Or maybe a World of Outlaws game?? ************************************************************ * If I could exist, would you be there waiting? * ************************************************************

I've been looking for (and badgering Papyrus) a sprint car simulator for quite a while. I recently saw a game published by ABC Sports called The Road to Indianapolis. The box graphics show some non-winged sprint car action but I haven't yet bought the game. I can't find a review, web page or demo for it.

Did they ever release X-car? I remember trying the demo a long time ago then hearing nothing about it. I didn't really like the demo.

Not sure if it was ever released, i based my cruel sarcastic comment on the demo. But i do recall it having THE worst d/m and controller config i've ever seen. Phil

Nice looking box, price was *above* average. I think everybody on RAS tried the demo and laid their money elsewhere. Too bad...it had a lot going for it: Good graphics, good frame rate, good menus, and a ton of things to tweak in the garage. The only thing wrong with it was the driving model. Unfortunate that it's the most important thing. -- Neil Yeatman Ajax, Ontario, CANADA
