They also said (although this may have changed, correct me if I'm wrong) that all teams had to go to transverse-mounted inline 4cyl - which screws Subaru for no good reason I can think of. Kendt |

I thought they were trying to make it like 1968 where the drivers were the
ones that won races and not technology. In those days they used one set of tires for more than one race. Then again, what do I know? "Mitch_A" > wrote in message . .. > What about the new FIA rules?

Maybe we can then be able to get a licensed Grand Prix racing game back onto
the PC! Granting Sony sole rights to the games was a joke! They've had the exclusive Formula One license for 1 or 2 seasons now and how many sims have you seen?

We've had Crammond's GP series and the ISI series up to this year. With the exception of the qualifying rules, you pretty much already HAVE a modern F1 sim. I'm not missing it any and I watch F1 every Sunday it's on, often at 4:30 am due to my West Coast location. dave henrie |
