Correction... I meant to say incident in the pits... not wreck. Best wishes for the injured crew member. I hate to see anyone injured in any form of racing =( -- Scott B.

At least it's more exciting than the Spanish Grand Prix..I'm a massive F1 fan, but it got so boring I almost fell asleep. I played Gran Turismo half the time. Doug

OK Frank.. let me know when you stop posting anything Star Wars OK ?? Scott PA-Scott -- Scott B. Husted PA-Scott on TEN G.T.S. Racing - http://www.GTS-Racing.com High Gear "The View" Editor - http://www.simracingnews.com http://home.earthlink.net/~sbhusted ICQ# 4395450

LOL Scott.. It's weird how we flame eachother for weird reasons eh ? No idea why, we are ok with each other... Where do you see Star Wars post here ? The only ones I do is for a _racing_ game called Star Wars - Episode 1 - Racer. It's appropriate, and on-topic. But I saw since a week or so that you posted stuff about CART vs. IRL, and now this. Not being the boss here, but you should clearly read the Rec.autos.simulators FAQ. It's different here than the NROS newsgroup. We need to adjust from one to the other, because it's how they are. No charter there, a charter here. -- -- Fran?ois Mnard <ymenard/Nas-Frank> -- NROS Nascar sanctioned Guide http://www.nros.com/ -- SimRacing Online http://www.simracing.com/ -- Official mentally retarded guy of r.a.s. -- May the Downforce be with you...

Scott's too easy to flame ymenard, thats why we do it. :) on-topic. Mms...ok game, enjoyable, but ok. Just beat Sebluba at his home track...oh well. They could have done so much much more with the game its almost a shame. Not to mention, the game didn't do a very good job of handling USB devices.

Frank, No problem here ;) I never take what you say to heart because with your English, sometimes Im not sure if you are being humerous or insulting ;) ROFLMAO Scott PA-Scott -- Scott B.

Heheheh, you might want to review your world class event in St. Louis yesterday LOL. I went to the Indy 500 today and was AWSOME! P.S. It was only 1 driver who didnt start... BUT did make it out. Hmmmmm wonder when the last time we had as many lead changes and leaders at Indy when CART was involved LOL....... Answer: NEVER P.S. How did you like your CART buddy messing up on his Fuel Calculation ROFLMAO! Gotta like how they add in CART. Heck even I knew he couldnt make it on fuel LOL Bill / Amish on TEN :)

Hmmmmm. I thought this news group was about cars? Since when did a Star Wars Pod racer become a automobile?

I was getting ready to laugh my ***off too, seeing as how Robbie almost won it in a borrowed car. He seems like an ok driver but never has been able to get it together in CART. Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Share what you know. Learn what you don't.

I thought it was one fine race for sure. Lots of drama. At least they run on real tracks most the time and not some temporary road course. And as far as miscues, half the field still hasn't wrecked out on the pace lap yet like at MIS the first year Cart ran the US 500. A couple of 1 car wrecks, engine troubles, and cars not starting are a problem for all racing series. I'd rather see that any day than when CART allowed Penske to build that special, one race only Mercedes, engine for the Indy 500 a few years back when Al Jr. and Fittapladi lapped the whole field. Anybody could drive that Target car to victory lane in CART right now. Makes Zanardi look like it was all car. Has the driver of that car(Montoya) ever driven one of these cars before? And he just dominates, I just dont know. Even Tony Stewart had to go through a year of training in the Busch series to be competitive this year in Nascar Winston Cup. Montoya makes it look easy. There's a new winner in IRL all the time or at least not the same guy every week. Something to think about, Phillip

I DID fall asleep, in fact. :o) And even while my fellow countryman Mika was leading... oh well. -- Ari Nieminen Remove .NOSPAM from my e-mail address when replying.

Robby Gordon is another one of those CART washouts that are in the IRL, period. And if you know so much, like he'd run out of fuel, why not go be a crewchief rather than armchair crewchiefing? :P And why in the world do people seem to think you HAVE to have ten-thousand lead-changes in order to make a race good? I can think of quite a few more exciting races at Indy when CART was there than I can think the last 4 years of IRL racing there.

>Is this post true? Someone who thinks IRL is better than CART? >Wow... I honestly had no idea people like you existed. >What compels you most about IRL? Are you fond of the color yellow? Heheheh, no.... I just like it better than CART. P.S. if you are talking about the yellows.... Heheheh, you might want to check your stats before you go any farther :) Bill / Amish on TEN

Road courses aren't what the IRL are about, road courses according to George are un-American. :?

Well in that case go out of a weekend and go watch some BTCC or F3. At least it's fun. Incidentally, while I'm talking about TOCA, my condolences to the family and friends of Neil Shanahan (http://www.neilshanahan.com/) who died after a crash at the Oulton Park FFord race yesterday. M
