Those darn Esses ;) It pushes the track building of the old game engine to the limit. Wide off-road sand traps, very accurate layout, and when you go near the fence in the Esses on the inside there is some banking on the hills, a first for the old game engine. It's very sweet, especially when converting to N3. Except those funky cars, but Im still trying to figure that out ;) And I do think the 40track maximum for N3 is a *** theory, they made it on purpose. Why go backwards ? There's no reason else. Im hearing Black helicopters, oops :) -- -- Fran?ois Mnard <ymenard> -- May the Downforce be with you...

Sorry about the 40 track limit in N3. We bumped it up to 60 in NASCAR Legends. No *** involved ... we don't let the marketing guys touch the code <g>. We just never tried making a larger calendar prior to release of NASCAR 3. Charlie Heath / Papyrus

Hmm, I think 60-track capability would be a great thing for an N3 patch, eh?

np Charlie, I was thinking about emailing you about this for an upcoming patch, but I figured you already knew. It was a tongue-in-cheek remark.. note that the Papyrus Black Helicopters did scared me ;) Im still testing the F1/F2 out of sync bug I talked about a couple of weeks ago. If I get more info, I'll email you. Seems to be related to pitting. -- -- Fran?ois Mnard <ymenard> -- May the Downforce be with you...

Yeah, I have the same problem with the f1/f2 bug. It only occurs in the pits (specifically when I am in the stall) and not at all while I am going down pit road. It doesn't matter whether I am being passed as I sit in the pits or if the cars are way on the back stretch. Nothing too major, but kind of a pain when you want to ensure enough time to stay ahead of the pace car. Mike Basden
