That's the problem with F1...you have ONE car trying to pass you. An oval would never fly because the cars all fly solo.
In NASCAR, you have like 10 cars trying to pass at once. There's also pit strategies over the course of half a dozen or more pitstops. If you don't find that interesting and can only focus on the shape of the track, I don't know what to say. I guess it's like trying to convince me that country music isn't total crap. Or rap.

country and rap have just as much crap as pop or any other genre.

NASCAR does race some road coarses, but that is the exception rather than the norm.

I have Nascar, II, III, IV by Papairus all were very good but I think EA bought them out. I used to use either a FF Logitech wheel or I'd use an adapter and run my R/C car digital controler......but it ate batteries like you have never seen.

Anyway....router we in slicker than snot.....so all is well

I had Colin Mcrae Rally 2 and 4, GREAT rally games. Tho never did get 2005 (they skipped 5-2004, and just went to 2005, just like xbox went form 1 to 360) . With a force feedback steering weel this game was EXTREAMLY fun. I never want a force feedback joystick again but for driving the force feedback steering wheels are so worth it. Besides this I can't think of any other driving games I own. Tho I may look into getting another newer rally game when I get a newer pc.
