There have been a few people from Papyrus that when questioned on this topic, said point blank that there isn't any interest from Sierra to do another open wheel sim. Joel Willstein

What the hell?? Why do we want a boring F1 sim? GP3 is coming, that's great for me. But, I want CART. That's where the best racing is! :) Dan Belcher Team Racing Unlimited http://simcrashes.cjb.net

I love ALL kinds of racing so any real sim will grab my attention! Even horse racing sims!

More appropriate for the time of year (in the Northern hemisphere at least), would be an ice racing sim. Now that really would be fun if the physics were up to it. MS

Not a sellout, just big business doing its thing. Like it or not, thats how they look at it. It's a hobby for us, but it's how they earn their living. Joel Willstein

: Oh I do think a CART sim is LONG overdue.! I just like the road and street : courses better than ovals. I get enough of those cirlces in N3. :) I don't doubt that within a few months of N4 appearing, it will be hacked and patched to the point that we can drive touring cars around the 'Ring. There are some brilliant people out there in Internet land. They can provide things that Papyrus is unable to (due to marketing pressures). Funny thing for me is, I used to be a big ICR2 fan and scoffed at the NASCAR sims. Then I imported a few ICR2 road courses over to N1, then later bought N2 and used the Pits touring car patch. ICR2 has never seen my harddrive since. I lost interest in Champ racing (can't explain why) about the same time, so that may explain partly why I gave up on ICR2. Until SCGT came along, running road courses in the Papyrus NASCAR sims provided some of the best close racing in a sim - I preferred it even to TOCA as I could place the cars more accurately on the track. I have no doubts that N4, with a few tweaks, will provide just as much fun. But of course I can understand those who still wish for a CART sim - it's been 5 years after all. Stephen

: I live in Toronto and have yet to see 1 snowflake this winter! (saying that : while knocking on wood) Strange, isn't it? Growing up in Toronto, and even as recently as the late 80's when I went to University of Toronto, I can remember big blankets of snow *before* the New Year. Something is definitely shifting in the global climate. However, with all the frigging freezing rain they now get in Ontario, I imagine an ice driving sim would be *very* appropriate. Maybe add the option where you have to wiggle the joystick back and forth for an hour before driving to simulate scraping away teh inch of ice on the windows :) Stephen

So....GPL isn't actually ice racing sim?.....
