>Wow! I was especially impressed with "Feppari" and "Porschoe"! Does this mean the game won't have an official licence, I wonder? -- Cheers! Graeme Nash

The text on the bridge seems to be French, and of the French tracks I know it looks the most like Le Mans, but surely they can't have gotten the rights to Le Mans? -- Arne Martin

Hi it is not LM, the straight after the Dunlop bridge is longer, and no grandtand on that side, but LM has the yellow/blue tirestacks though...maybe they just won't call it LM...lol Sudesh Arne Martin wrote:

That's a real shame. So you've seen all these shots before then? That would mean than we've no idea yet which cars and tracks will apear in the final game then. Still, I'm sure with the dedication to producing a true simulation that the West brothers would seem to have with regards to this particular game, whatever content the end product has it will still be a wonderful game for Sports Car lovers. (I was going for the worlds longest sentence award there) :) Simon.

These shots are very old.... from what I understand, they are taken from a development project for the Le Mans 24hours... before West-brothers lost out to Infogrames or who ever developed Lm24 into the biggest flop in sim-world lately.. Makes me sad to know what we *could* have had tho... :(( -- All the best, Ed Solheim ** Proud member of the GPLEA ** (Remove SPAM-GUARD in address to reply) Simon Brown wrote: > I don't really need to say any more, just look at this screenshot > http://www.spielecity.net/show.php3?Bild=/previews/S_WorldSportsCars/33.jpg

It is however, taken from what should have been the Le Mans 24 hours sim... instead of the game we got in the end... To bad the West brothers lost out to Infogrames or whoever ended up creating LM24.. I doubt we'll see "La Sarthe" in WSC... but I sure as hell hope we do :)) -- All the best, Ed Solheim ** Proud member of the GPLEA ** (Remove SPAM-GUARD in address to reply)

Not me! I was always a Copper fan until Team Loofus started to win races. That Joe Clerk was the best drivler ever! David (who is up *way* too early) "Tim O." <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

This car is under the dunlop bridge, looking at the chicane...facing the wrong direction. Or he's reversing. I actually saw that car spin off into the esses and thumping the barriers *hard just after Eric Van de Poele lost the Racing For Belgium Ferrari exiting the chicane. Which year? Umm... 96 or 97... :-) Matt
