DTR Demo up!

WizardWorks has posted the demo on their DTR site moments ago. We're downloading the demo right now, but at 3 kb/s it doesn't go fast. It is to be hoped that the guys from 3DFiles.com or Avault get the demo up a.s.a.p. so everybody can enjoy it. [quote]This is the world's first authentic dirt track racing game, qualification to championship. From the fender--bending, dog-eat-dog world of stock, to the supped-up production stock racing machines and fast-as-lightening, loud-as-thunder late model series, this is racing on the edge. Aggressive driving, accumulated prize money and smart vehicle and upgrade purchases propel you to the next class. Get your car in gear, or get off the track.[/quote] We'll post links to sites that have the demo mirrored as soon as they appear. Until then, try it at WizardWorks with a backup utility like Getright. [link lost in import] Enjoy! -- Kenneth Verburg Webmaster/Editor-in-chief High Gear http://www.simracingnews.com

I have asked a couple of fellow webmasters if they could get the demo locally as soon as possible. I hope the demo will be widely available within an hour, but I'm not sure. I have 1.12kb here, so it's not going fast for me either. -- Kenneth Verburg Webmaster/Editor-in-chief High Gear http://www.simracingnews.com

It might even be the best stinking sim ever Mike <G> MS

I figured that that would go under the "this thing is the best" category :)

DTR the first time It was during a heavy download period from their site. Normal downloads I've got with other places were in the 398.xKB/sec with my Road Runner cable.
