Hey ZZ! A balst from the past

I still have the IGPS1 replays and was watching our mid-air pass at the top of Moss. :) It brought freaking tears to my eyes. Man, those were the days... IGPS 1 and 2 were definitely what Papy had in mind when they came up with GPL... I love you guys. :) -- ========================================================= Redneck Techno-Biker & "programming deity" http://www.paddedwall.org/john DeMONS/1 for Nascar Racing 3 & Nascar Legends http://www.paddedwall.org/demons DeMONS/2 for Nascar Racing 4 and 2002 Season (in development) http://www.paddedwall.org/demons2 Barbarian Diecast Collector (460+ cars and counting) http://www.paddedwall.org/diecast If you want to send me email, go to the first URL shown above & click "Send Me Mail" in the contents frame. =========================================================

Yea, I still remember that pass like it was yesterday. Those 2 season's were the best. Most of us from IGPS still race together. It was and still is a great group. -- Richard "ZZ" Busch Member: Screamers Racing League GPL Rank + 22.059 MoGPL Rank + 369.86 http://www.ZZBusch.com ---------------- Busch Motorsports: Remember racecar is racecar spelled backward ----------------- Busch Carpentry: Plans?

At least I gave it a shot though... :) For some reason, after upgrading my system, GPL started showing momentary stutter pauses, even if I didn't use the enhanced car/wheel/track graphics. It even does it in replays. I can't use the OpenGL patch because the screen just goes black, so I'm stuck on D3D. You'd think that with an AMD 1ghz and a radeon 8500, the performance thing wouldn't be an issue. And like Toney said, my Nascar addiction is a redneck thing (and you guys always knew I harbored a not-so-secret love of stockcar racing). It would be really nice to have more road courses for the Papy Nascar sims. Finally having Riverside (N3/NL) was GREAT, but nobody has provided a conversion for that track. I just hope that Dave Noonan et al will release the various GPL tracks for NR2k2 as they finish them instead of holding back. -- ========================================================= Redneck Techno-Biker & "programming deity" http://www.paddedwall.org/john DeMONS/1 for Nascar Racing 3 & Nascar Legends http://www.paddedwall.org/demons DeMONS/2 for Nascar Racing 4 and 2002 Season (in development) http://www.paddedwall.org/demons2 Barbarian Diecast Collector (460+ cars and counting) http://www.paddedwall.org/diecast If you want to send me email, go to the first URL shown above & click "Send Me Mail" in the contents frame. =========================================================

I was going through the email from IGPS/1 and 2. Lots of funny stuff in there. The best has to be Matteo's meltdown, with the Cornflakes emails being 2nd on the comedy scale. :) -- ========================================================= Redneck Techno-Biker & "programming deity" http://www.paddedwall.org/john DeMONS/1 for Nascar Racing 3 & Nascar Legends http://www.paddedwall.org/demons DeMONS/2 for Nascar Racing 4 and 2002 Season (in development) http://www.paddedwall.org/demons2 Barbarian Diecast Collector (460+ cars and counting) http://www.paddedwall.org/diecast If you want to send me email, go to the first URL shown above & click "Send Me Mail" in the contents frame. =========================================================
