Where oh where can I race Nascar2 online? TEN is STILL not set up and it seems Papyrus and Sierra are dragging their feet. I'm even willing to direct dial like I did with Hawaii and Nascar1. I just tried to get on Hawaii again but it dies everytime creating my account when it gets to the State.

I'm new to Hawaii, too, and I also had that problem...it would always hang on State.... I was about ready to re-download the file... but tried it again the next day with no troubles... Maybe it has something to do with the hours ? I don't know, but when Miine worked, it was around 3pm or so, EST, as I recall. someone else suggested downloading it again. you may have to do that. and as far as Online racing goes... I know you can do it on Kali. -- Sit down,Strap in,Shut up,Hang on,Go fast,Turn left,,,Kiss Trophy Girl GGGGGGgoooo #3,,,31,,,28,,,94,,,6,,,5,,,18,,,8,,, Handy^man

I just tried again (3:45p est) and it failed. I lowered my port speed to 9600 and got the BBS instead. ???? I don't know and don't know how to get help. > > Where oh where can I race Nascar2 online?

By this time, it had already worked for me, though. by the way, if you got the bbs, somewhere on there is a readme saying, "if this is the only thing you got..." I think it tells you what to do... or who to contact. I hope you get on, because every time I go on, lately, there just isn't anyone else there . I wonder if it has to be in the week, instead of the weekend ? I just don't know. I remember it being quite frustrating for me, as I tried about twelve times over three days, before it worked... good luck ! -- Sit down,Strap in,Shut up,Hang on,Go fast,Turn left,,,Kiss Trophy Girl GGGGGGgoooo #3,,,31,,,28,,,94,,,6,,,5,,,18,,,8,,, Handy^man

I use Kali when I race Online. It will cost $20 for the software and membership, but that's all you will pay for life. It works OK, sometimes there is some warp, but it's still better than paying huge phone bills. I think you can get it at: http://www.kali.com If not do a search for Kali. -- Blake Where oh where can I race Nascar2 online?

Hey Bob, and anyone else interested. HEAT is the answer. No that's not just their tag line, I've tried it and it works great. HEAT allows you to play any IPX game over the Internet and Nascar2 functions fine. Granted this was in a two player game buy 2 is better than no one. With other computer cars things worked fine and it was a blast. I blew the doors off my pal at Bristol, C***te and Michigan. There was very little lag, in fact it was unnoticeable. The nice thing is you can play any IPX game so if you're into Warcraft, or Quake or whatever, you can try it out. The perimeter membership is free and all you have to do is go to [link lost in import: /;Sign] up and go racin! Dave Long
