we have ff wheels, sure would like to see a stunt game sim style! I remember
playing stunts or whatever it was... jumps, a big loop etc, racing agains
time. With vga it still gave me vertigo.

Stunts is the right title... It was from Broderbund. I was working at
Spectrum HoloByte at the time, and our own "Stunt Driver" was in
beta. We released it soon after, though apparently not many people
liked it. :-/
For a bit more "current" stunt driving, see if you can find Interplay's
Whiplash ("Fatal Racing" in Europe). It supports GLIDE acceleration,
though no D3D. It still looks good in software mode though.

GC did do a stunt sim, and I think it was called 'Stunt Car Racer' if my
memory serves me well. I think it came just after GC's other classic
racer - 'Revs'. A long time ago now!
I also think I remember some talk of GC updating SCR, but haven't heard
anything about that for a while now.

It is a bit similar, although it is RC cars you're driving.
But hey, it's got the loop!

There is a demo available.

And I think it had a 4wd Audi and the Lamborghinininininini LM2000 (or whatever
it was called...)

I had Stunt Driver and if that's the one that had the car with the shaker
hood I absolutely loved it at the time :). I remember the car physics
where way ahead of there time. hmmmmm now where did I put
those old five inch disks :)

Long since abandoned, no longer for sale. However, it has a
relatively large following. One of the more popular "abandoned" games. I've
got a few links to sites with the game as well as add-on tracks, track
building competitions, etc.

It would be very cool if somebody could redo the original "Stunts" with 3D
Acceleration, Force Feedback wheel support, many more cars, LAN & online
play and much more. The track editor is a must, though, maybe include a
weather editor as well (Stunts had only road Conditions of icy, mud and
road, as far as I remember).

Never argue with an idiot. He brings you down to his level, then beats you

Great. You'll see my name in the credits section. :-) If you still have
it
that is.
The Beta AI was absolutely hilarious at the time. We assigned the
"old lady" AI to the VW bug, as a test, and we drove the Mustang.
With two laps left, we're doing absolutely the fastest lap we can,
then comes this VW bug roaring up behind us! It was hilarious.
