Could somebody tell me the proper names of the turns in Monza? I know
the last one is the Parabolica, and there are some "Lesmo"s, but
that's all. I need to know them so I can curse them properly. ;)

Ok... let's make it clear ;-P
Turn 1 is Curva Grande.
Turn 2 is called Curva Della Roggia.
Turn 3 and 4 are the Curva di Lesmos.
Turn 5, near the bridge is Curva del Serraglio.
The long left turn 6 is Variante Ascari.
Finally, the last one is the famous Curva Parabolica.
That was in 1967. I know that now the circuit as Rettifilo and Variante
Goodyear for the first set of chicanes before Curva Grande, and also Curva
de Vialone before Variante Ascari.

I think there is a very small detail wrong, however I am not 100%
sure. Maybe the Italians around do know precisely
"Curva" is only one turn. Since there are two of them, it should be called
"Curve di Lesmos"

Rettifilo is actually the name of the straights, "Tribune" is the S/F
straight and "Centrale" is the backstraight heading down to
Parabolica. Also the Lesmos are usually called "First Lesmo" and
"Second Lesmo" by the drivers to distinguish the two corners.

LOL!
You're correct, Francois!

I don't think there will ever be a patch for
the demo. The full release should work with
a cyrix, at least judging by nascar 2. The N2
demo didn't work on cyrix, but full release did.
BTW, what's up with this newsgroup? No new
messages in days...
If you'd like to try the demo at my house, just
let me know when you want to stop by.
