And from what they have shown on the TV here, the tracks will make F1 2002's look 100% accurate... Dave "FC" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:vjjP8.5962$[email hidden]...

I guess it's yet another Aussy V8 dissappointment. You go Codemasters. Here's your chnace to be the first to make a decent Aussy V8 sim. Nigel
Nigel, guessing from your email address, your in NZ. Not sure if you have Electronics Boutique chain in NZ, but if you bought it there they have a 7 day return policy (well at least in Aust anyway)... I returned V8 Challenge after 1 day. It wasnt worth wasting any more of my time, so I swapped it over for a pre-order on F12002 which I now have and couldnt be happier. V8 Challenge was eagerly anticipated, yet delivered little. Like others I'm hoping Codemasters do a better job with the V8's. Matt. "Nigel Nichols" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:aekert$9i5$[email hidden]...

Ok, I have read a lot of bitching about V8 Challenge. I have it and thought it was OK. I only drive the Bathurst track. Apart from the sound being a bit erratic at times I don't really have a problem. Are you talking about the cars handling? I thought it is just me not being very good.
