Think you can scare those other goof balls into finishing and releasing Trans Am 68-72? Eric Cote <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]... "You mention, GP3 will be not be sold in the US market ? What is this marketing strategy ? FIA F1 returns to the US in 2000, the same year GP3 comes out, you deprive multiple thousands of sell ? I will make a petition on my website regarding this issue. I'm in Canada, and if your marketing strategy is the same as GP500, then you're making a huge mistake. You're opening the door of WAREZ on the net. If your intention was to brought people in the North American continent to buy an import from either purchase on the net or head scratching mail order, then it will bounce back to you, since there will be an underground movement of hackers ready to put GP3 on top of the WAREZ. Think of it please. Eric http://www.simracingmag.com" Think I scared the hell out of them, when they saw I was the webmaster of SRM <g> LOL "Thomas J.S.
