The greatness of the title did indeed encourage VROC, but without Vroc
and GPLrank, there would be no community today. Just a few lost souls who
hadn't seen real daylight in 4 years.

I don't think Papy's "physics" are in any way flexible at all. That's not
necessarily true, but it's an opinion I've formed based on previous
discussions.
I think they could maybe do Cherry Coke, but not Lemon & Lime.

For that matter, Alison Hine has a Cobra mod for GPL that she races
and in her opinion it seems to be 100% accurate to the real Cobra that
she races in club events.
I'm really not sure what aspect of Papy's sim engine aren't flexible.
They started out doing open wheeled cars with both of their engines,
and ported them to tin-tops with equal success.
I am sure Nascar Thunder 2003 will be fun just as Nascar Heat was fun.
I wouldn't bet on it being a Papy killer in the least.

I "mentioned it" because its in the article I refer too. But, it wasn't
germane to the "point" of my post.....so I didn't go into details. I agree
I didn't word it very well....and it was distracting. My mistake.

Just how do you '***' the back of another car?
Some of us still pay call charges to go online. It's called British Telecom
screwing the British Public, and it sucks. I can't even pay them 30 a month
for ADSL because they can't be arsed to upgrade my local exchange with the
new technology.
