For those of you who are historical purists (or just old guys like me), the following phrase might bring back some memories:

"The thrill of victory . . . and the agony of defeat!"

If you can remember the cars from the P&G era when they were originally raced, then you probably recall that phrase from ABC's Wide World Of Sports broadcasts.

Inspired by memories from my childhood I decided to put together a little TV logo add-on for the P&G mod that gives you the ABC Wide World Of Sports logo when viewing replays in full-screen (TV) mode. Here are a couple of screen shots:





No, this is NOT an April Fool's joke . . . and it does look kind of cool in-game. Not the kind of thing that constitutes a "serious" improvement to the game, but I it makes me grin.

File is available now in the P&G "Downloads" section on the NoGrip site:

Enjoy!

I can hear Jim McKay now..."...thrill of victory, agony of defeat". For those of us who suffered through the sparse F1 coverage, well it wasn't good, but long before cable TV and ESPN, it was all that we had. Thanks for the memories.
