says... I posted some information in another thread:- ( You could be in an Alfa or an ERA for example ) Physics seemed reasonable for the early version that I was playing, but definitely not as hard core as GPL. Maybe someone will convert GPL's Nurburgring:-) - Michael

Can some one please give me the details of this product. It sounds just like the sim. I have been waiting for. What tracks, cars etc. and are the physics upto GPL.

IIRC what they had at E3 was a fantasy track. It was made with bankings because I guess the creators of this title assume that without banking you can't caption the attention of American racing fans.

It could it be an patriotic (sp?) American on a visit to Europe to cheer on his favourite driver.. :-)) Here's to hoping! Cheeers! -- All the best, Edwin Solheim **remove spamguard in address to reply** Drop by "The Paddock - a legendary site....." for some cool GPL stuff! http://home.c2i.net/thepaddock
I don't think so, Edwin. I'm sure that the chap who originally posted the details said that when he tried the sim they were using a fictitious oval circuit. -- Best regards, Bruce. ====== The Stunned Mullet........seriously satirical stuff! http://welcome.to/the_stunned_mullet =============================================== >> A fictitious track "somewhere in the USA". >> (Note the flag*** from the stands). >It could it be an patriotic (sp?)

I think it is a Microprose title. Should be released the same time as GP3 in Oct. I think. buzard
