Racing sims other than auto

By the chance, Does anybody know if there are racing simulators, other than auto, on the market? Like water racing. /Igor

Igor, I recently purchased Virtual Skipper 2 from a French Company Called Duran. Yacht racing in ACC, Open60's, Melges 24 or an Offshore racer. Four locations and multi play. Fun and relaxing sim. Like any racing though, it's ez to get *kinda* fast but difficult to go really fast :) A demo is available at www.virtualskipper2.com Mitch "Igor" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:fCP2a.428$[email hidden]...

I'd recommend Virtual Skipper 2 as well. Probably the best sailing sim around and has a large community following with online racing, add-ons, etc. "Igor" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:7VP2a.437$[email hidden]... > Thanks Mitch.

I'd love to see a good Offshore PowerBoat Racing game (the big guys). I've got something called PowerBoat VR that I haven't played in years because it basically sucked. I'd also like to see a MTM 3. Larry "Igor" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:fCP2a.428$[email hidden]...

ROTFL! Glenn

I don't know about this game, i just took a look at the website, and it looks awfully rough. The forums are dead, and this is quite possibly one of the funniest things I've read in an FAQ/HELP section: "1) Enter the key on the web site to register. By trial and error, you will obtain the correct key. For your information, you should use lower case letters and some letters are hard to distinguish" Just what I want to do when I get a game is "trial and error" my way into getting a game to work correctly. I'd love to see a good offshore sailing sim, and while this may be the only option, it sure doesn't look all that promising. And unfortunately, this has gotta be a serious gaming niche so I doubt we'll see one anytime soon. Admittedly I didnt download the demo, but nothing on their web site looked too inspiring. just my .02 "Mitch_A" <[email hidden]> wrote in news:3QP2a.445$[email hidden]:
