<<<<<<<<<<<SNIP>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Regarding Indy Racing: The Road to Indy..... I can't complain about the frame rate issue, on my 200 with 3dfx and ALL options on and a FULL race track my frate rate is GREAT......HOWEVER they'd better address the other problems tho...This IS NOT A SIM, Arcade game at best, even in so called SIM mode, Damage model is non existant, I hit the wall and so many other cars trying to get a feel for this thing (which I finally did develop) that my car should have been TOTALED MANY TIMES, but, never a scratch, not even a flat tire, heard the crew cheif warn me not to blow the engine, so NATURALLY, I tried to blow it up, couldn't do it. (and Yes I had crash damage on, and diff set to expert). I'm gonna keep it tho just for ability to drive the Silver Crown, Midgets and Sprint Cars. I've been wanting that since the OLD Mario Andretti's Racing Challenge (now that was a TURD, but I love sprint cars). I think they got the driving physics pretty close for those cars....but the IRL Cars SUCK IMHO. So I hope they support this game and patch the problems, but even if they don't I'm gonna have fun with it........OH YEA don't forget the thing CAME with 2 count em 2 COMPLETE CD's with a msg on the sleeve of the second copy saying "Give this FREE COPY to your buddy............" So 2 copy's for the price of one and a fairly fun game too. Bob
