Has anyone tried the touring car patch for N2 from The Pits? Is it as good as they say? I would like to try it out however I haven't bought N2 yet (I was hooked by the open wheel stuff first). On one of The Pits pages it says the patch doesn't work with the Busch series version (I assume the add on pack of tracks?). When I went to buy N2 it has been updated to Nascar 2 50th anniversary which includes the Busch tracks. Does it mean the patch from The Pits won't work with "this" version? I know this isn't the best topic for discussion but my emails to The Pits have gone unanswered. Thanks,
The NASCAR 50th Aniversary package is nothing more than a compilation of the two together. As for the patch, I dunno, but if its anything like the tried it yet is cause I don't ahve ICR2. If you don't have ICR2, I'd suggest getting it (Although now its called CART, I dunnot if the CART tracks will work with the Touring Car patch). Also, if you wanna install it, I'd suggest installing it on another drive or another directory -- Travis Kallner mknight98 on TEN ROAR Thunder Online Championship http://members.tripod.com/~modernknight98/roar.html GO MATT KENSETH #17 & WARD "OLDER BUT FASTER" BURTON #22
Bob, I play with the TPTCC patch and it's a lot of fun ! The sound, the cars, and handling are all different. If you want to try the TPTCC patch, and the new BGN expansion pack is on a separate CD.... then you should setup N2 in a separate directory and then update that version with the patches without installing the BGN EP...then install the TPTCC in that directory. Most of own separate directory. FWIW, I run the CTS Supertruck patch runs well while integrated with N2 w/ GNEP. The problem is these three main directories take up 410 mb and hurts when you are running a smaller HD and trying to run other sims. FWIW, I have enjoy lots of sims and I'm not great at any one Sim but I'm having fun and thats what Counts ! Tim >Has anyone tried the touring car patch for N2 from The Pits?

Not only DO the ICR2/CART tracks work with the Touring Car Patch...They are almost a requirement. You get two road courses with N2, there is a free convertor that gives you the ability to convert about 3 ICR2\Cart tracks for use with the Touring cars...and for $15 bucks you'll get a convertor that convers ALL the ICR2/CART tracks and ...a convertor that does the once thought impossible, convert N2 tracks for use with ICR2/CART. The TPTCC patch is a great effort. If you ever get tired of only turning left...try the patch.. but hang on to your helmet...The touring car drivers are very insensitive to your attempts at smooth driving...glide into a corner too slow and they'll punt you off out of the way... New sounds, new car bodies, new drivers, the tptcc track has it all....excellant work dave henrie
