is it me - or is that first car painfully slow? I really cant be bothered to get to 180 credits for something with a litle go. Are the other cars much faster?

The Rally Trophy demo only had the Mini in it, but it was still fun ;-) All the AI cars have the same car as you, so you should be able to lap competitively & learn the track & racing line. Speed is relative to your opponents, not the track. It'll only take you a few races, then you can find out for yourself how fast the other cars are ;-) Malc.

Hi, i know it's relative, and i can lap faster than AI no problem, it's just tiresome having so little power. And comparinf to a Mini - one of the greatest competition cars ever proves nothing.

You can unlock all the cars within 10 minutes. Just race all the AI at the test track a few times, add them all and set them to Pro, you'll win every time. -- Ian P <email invalid due to spammers>

Thanks for that - just done it :D Well - what can i say - other cars are much better. The turbo is very well done - the lag, the way pressure builds, and the sound. Even the dump valve is done properly. Any ideas as to when the game is due proper? "Ian P" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:ukVra.14295$[email hidden]...

I'd love to 'em model at least one oval track (superspeedway, perhaps). That would, IMO, put the drafting model to the test. :) It's gonna be a great sim, IMO. One that I'm planning on supporting when it's released. -Will

Stick with it, because the GT cars are much quicker. Personally, I love this sim, not least because of the great view out of the cockpit. Glenn -- ---------------------- Remove NOSPAM to reply

You will have lots of points in no time.

If you say so, Ashley. No, I honestly admit that I'm addicted to oval track racing (but local dirt tracks turn me off). ;) -Will

Only the turbo could be called much quicker. Chris

They are saying that eventually it will include options for all sorts of cars, including open wheelers, but I haven't seen anything more specific than that.
