So, there I was just sitting around last night thinking to myself about how cool it would be to jump in the Ferrari and turn a few laps at Texas Motor Speedway, or maybe taking the Lotus on a few frenzied ass laps at Bristol when all of a sudden the lights started to dim and a dense fog began to settle over everything (Damn, I'd better close the windows)...Suddenly a soft voice spoke to me and told me that she was my Christmas Angel and that if I wanted to drive the Ferrari at Texas and the Lotus at Bristol than it should be so. I thought to myself surely this must be a dream (and please don't call me Shirley), but it all seemed so real; the voice, the fog; the lights. When I awoke I looked around the room and nothing had changed; there was no fog, no dimmed lighting and alas, there was no Christmas Angel. Nothing had changed at all, except for the cat getting into the Jagermeister, but that's another story. It was nothing but a dream after all. Or was it?... http://www.theuspits.com/owheel/gpl/files/oval2gpl.zip Merry Christmas to everyone and a big bag of thanks to the guys at http://www.theuspits.com/:- -- See ya in the pits, Deano I have a terrible memory. In fact my memory's so bad that I can't remember how long it's been since I've forgotten anything.
You cant please everyone. I love the OVALS and by looking at VROC today, it has put new life back into GPL since alot of N3 racers are back playing with GPL. WE just need new tracks period of GPL. Maybe PAPY can hire David to make some new tracks to play with. PassedYa

I understand that, and I'm not complaining. I will try the ovals for sure. It's just that I've seen screenshots of Road America in a Lotus, so I'm thinking it's possible to convert ICR2 tracks. I was basically asking for an ETA :) Hena -- Best regards, Hena H?kk?nen Remove NOSPAM to email me! > You cant please everyone.

Are you sure the screen shot wasn't a fabrication? I saw shots of our TPTCC cars, (N2 or N99 patched to 4 door sedans) on the streets of Monaco. That was early last year, make sure your "source" isn't cutting an image and tranplanting it onto a track scene from RA. but... I can't think of a more terrifying turn than the kink on the back straight at RA WITHOUT wings to hold you down..... dave henrie

Hena, David Noonans converter project is still not done. There are more ovals to do,then the road courses, and finally ICR2. Joel Willstein

I'm not that thrilled about ovals ... Hena, you should try Talladega at least, the drafting is actually great fun there. :) Haven't had a chance to try the other ovals online yet. But true, ICR2 tracks (Elkhart Lake, Laguna Seca, Mid-Ohio etc.) would be heaven online. -- Greger Huttu

A whole bunch of us would sure appreciate it if you would post your Talladega setup(s) to your website. And a replay. And a setup for the Eagle at the 'Ring, and, . . . aw hell, we'll take whatever you've got. Sorry; I'm late making up my Christmas "wish list" this year.
