To show the popularity of sim racing in my area. (Pacific NW USA..inland Washington State){near Idaho}[about 2 hours from Canada]<roughly, by car at legal speeds> I conducted a scientific experiement. Over the years on Ras, forums BBs's, I've made zillions of posts. In all that time, I've met maybe 1 local sim racer. A couple who used to live here but currently none that I know of... Well just for Science and giggles, I annonymously signed up with some Nationwide Swingers website(wife swapping groping etc) In less than a week after merely signing up without a full membership and no way to respond to the participants, I got two offers from local swinging couples.... Conclusion? Swinging is more popular than Sim-Racing...wonder if they'd like to see my Thrustmaster equipment? dave henrie
Not all things that are "popular" make the most sense or stand for any quality.... On Sat, 09 Aug 2003 16:30:45 GMT, Dave Henrie <[email hidden]> wrote:

LOL! Not very scientific indeed. Surely you know that the other group you signed up with doesn't require a fast computer, a high end video card, and an add-on wheel to enjoy fully...obviously it is the cheaper choice hence it is more popular among the masses. :) LOL!
