Not all sports fans are catered to.

Being a NASCAR and in general a motorsportsfan one of the ways that I use FS for escapism is to plan a flight every weekend to wherever the week's NASCAR event is being run.  However, I have noticed that even though famous ball stadiums are represented in the hi-res cities I've noticed that the most famous of racing venues are totally overlooked.  There is no Daytona Speedway, Indianapolis, Talledaga or any others.  Even though there's little enough to Dover DE. it would've been little enough to put the Downs down where it should be.  Is there possibly any one into scenery design who could pull off some speedway sceneries or would Lago's flight sim scenery enhancer have the toold I need to make my own?

I too noticed the lack of speedways. there is a scenery for Atlanta Motor Speedway thats at Flightsim.com and I think Here at Simvation, but thats about it. Maybe 2004 will have something.

I'm sure that Michael Schumacher would love to see F1 circuits included: Monza, Silverstone ...

Er... I don't think Michael needs to fly in FS when he's got the real thing parked in his back yard  :D

Wow - wish my garden was big enough for a Concorde, or a 747-with-a-shuttle-on-top. Those strange smelly things with wings are OK, but it's not like the real thing ...

;D

Hey, FS planes have panels, and sounds and repaints; any chance of the synthetic smell of aviation kerosene? Now THAT would be realism! M$ could include it as a scratch-and-sniff on the FS2004 box!
