I've just read the preview of motorcity at bhmotorsports. As long as its as good as it says, it should be awesome. It sounds very similar (in some ways) to street rod, which was one of my favorite games. The main thing to worry about is the physics, but after watching one of the in-car videos and from what you can tell after watching 15secs of video, seems realistic. It'll be interesting to see the level of modifications you can do to the cars, hopefully as much as you can in burnout :). This is one game i'll be keeping my eye out for! Luke -=87=-
Yes, this is one that looks like a lot of fun to me too. Street Rod 2 is still an old favorite of mine, even though the physics don't really exist at all :-) It ran great on my 386SX16 though! If you put in a 4.11 gear instead of a 2.78, you actually lose acceleration lol. Still a lot of fun though to save that cash for the big blower, win a car, strip it for parts and hope to buy a sweet combo :-) Either way, it should definately be a huge, huge leap from SR2. I used to play just to see how many completely decked out '69 Vettes I could build before the summer was through. Never could beat the king through Mulholland Drive! So close, but the construction zones always killed me. I usually can get one each of red, white, and blue '69 Vettes, running 9.6-9.8 quarter mile times at grudge night (that usually lasted about 2 runs, then it's back to 10.0 or so.) That one is still on my harddrive. It's abandonware now, so those who don't have it.... Still, this game looks like it has potential to be my Everquest!

> Never could beat the king through Mulholland Drive! I did, and the ending was extremely lame. A screen came up with some congratulatory message and then the the game was over...You don't even get to drive the blown Shelby! I just found SR1 a few weeks ago actually, it was kinda neat to play the old games again.
All this talk of old games has got me downloading street rod 1 & 2 haha :). The physics in motorcity look quite good after watching most of the videos... cant wait!! Luke -=87=- Scott Lyman <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:9jpdvp$100qi$[email hidden]...

What are the keys to SR2? I can get steering - but no gearshift/throttle/brakes (are there any brakes... ? ;-) Jonny
I just use the Up, Down, Left, Right. When you accelerate, presss space to change up, to change down brake and press space :).. Luke Jonny Hodgson <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:fqa87.36413$[email hidden]...
