ABC Sports Indy Racing?

Does anyone have idea when this game will be released if they haven't already done so? I am dying to try one of their sprint or silver crown cars.

That is what the Monday night Football game crowd has been saying. If so, we may never see this game. If we do see it, will it get any support?

YES! DISNEY SOFTWARE picked up all their titles and ABC Indy 500 will be released Octobe 1st, 1998 (date subject to change).

Hey there Indy should be going gold any day now. We have a release candidate we've sent out to the press for preview purposes. The sprint, midget and SC cars are fun -- tight ovals, contact. Game will be 3D hardware acceleration only. D3D, DirectX 5. We do stuff like model all 4 wheels, on all the cars. I'll post more technical stuff for you guys when I get it together...

You'll see the game and get support. Disney's committed to supporting the titles. We're already talking to Mplayer about multiplayer Indy...
