Could you take a look at this Ed or Adam Please

First of all sorry for the guy that uploaded the indy track, he know not what is best for him, secondly, is there any way I could get the main grandstand 3do file for the Daytona track in Daytona USA, I saw the track and think it is the nicest sim track I have ever seen. Also if you cannot answer any other questions, please answer this one. Are you going to stick with the same track format? by this I mean dat, mip, stp, pmp, and 3do files for NASCAR II. Also will there be a track editor?

Well, in short, no we can't give you that file. For all the same reasons we can't give you the track. No, the track file format is not the same. We had to make some major changes to account for things like transparent textures and others. We also don't have any plans to release a track editor in the near future. Adam Papyrus

Ok, listen guys this is it the ultimate idea. Here is how you guys could make a track maker. you go to a menu and it has a fill in the blanks type thing. first fill in the blank for track name then the blank for # of turns then the length of the back straight in feet the degrees of the first turn, second, third, fourth, etc. each in seperate boxes. the pit length and anything else i left out. then click make. it makes the track. then go into the next editor. it gives you a 3d perspective of the track and allows you to put in grandstands, billboards, rv's, ambulances,etc. PLEASE TAKE THIS INTO CONSIDERATION!!!!

Sounds like a great idea, but may be a difficult programming job. Would be nice to be able to design your own, especially road courses. I'd pay for a separate program that would do that, anyone else? JEB

Adam; I do hope that little detail will change while we still play the game.... I think it would be a blast to create-your-own road courses and have modem races on them! Oh well.... I'll just have to wish for now. Just add my vote of "yes" next time someone starts tossing that idea around, OK? :-) Mike -boyzwillbeboyz

Wow! That sound real easy :). Seriously, there are lots of other considerations with a track builder, many of which we haven't been able to solve. So, for now, it is not going to happen. Adam Papyrus

So you guys have tried at least right. Oh well i'll just keep dreaming (sigh) Keith Speroni

Oh, sort of like the old stunt driver game for the pc???

I'd pay more than I paid for the original programme Jed!!
