Drivers: The IVGA will be better and stronger than ever in 1997. And maybe a little wiser as well <GGGGGGGG>. We found out a few things and I learned a few things the hard way. The Membership has been 99.9% behind the IVGA. The IVGA will continue to focus on racing simulation software and work with PAPYRUS - NASCAR 2 and INDYCAR 2. We also feel the strongly support the MicroProse Grand Prix 2 software and look forward to the new racing software coming out from the ABC/Micro- Prose Joint Venture... They have said they are coming out with mew racing software... Cant Wait.. Don Wilshe PS. (941) 945-2587

Randy, I don't think 2697 people supported him. I, as well as at least a dozen other people I am personally aware of, have asked to be removed from the membership of the IVGA. We don't want to be associated with someone who seems to have gone off half-cocked, and can't deal with this situation in a rational manner. Not to mention the fact that the IVGA is stealing, yes I said stealing, (when you take something without asking, it is stealing) the setups with the Fastlap program. Don didn't like being told to tell his members that their setups were being captured. This tells me he doesn't want to be honest. I have a real problem with that. Any software that captures info. from my computer that I'm not aware of is dangerous. I don't think anyone has any right to know what info. I have on my hard drive unless I offer it to them. To take that info. secretly is deceptive, devious, and, if it isn't it should be, illegal. Tom Durig FORMER IVGA MEMBER

Well, actually, it's a matter of "common sense"... I read about the IVGA back when I was considering which racing league to run with. After reading the info, it was pretty evident what was happening... no thanks...

> Am I the only one who doesn't see the point to this? No Eric.....you are not alone. I was kinda hoping YOU could explain this to all of us here, like you have with other things in the past. I figure once the NRL is up and running (and it's anything near what I hope it to be), that everything else will be pulling a distant 3rd in comparision. BTW...a sincere thanks for all your help here in RAS. Keep the input coming! tom how about just "Quieter and more circumspect" in '97 =;+P _______________________________________________________________________ | | | HAWAII resident since 9-18-95 / on-line handle: TCEckels | | | | 3RD COAST RACING runs with: H.A.L. / H.C.S. / C.N.S.R.L. | | The NIGHT OWLS / The NIGHT HAWKS | |_______________________________________________________________________|
