Has anybody noticed how much better the graphics are in ICR2?
They both seem to use the same video engine,but even with the
same settings,I don't drop hardly any objects in ICR2.I really
notice the difference at Michigan.ICR2 even has more of a screen
to draw.I'm running a pentium 83 overdrive with 8 meg of ram
and a 1 meg.Cirrus v-card.Any ideas?

ICR 2 is programed to VESA/VBE 2.0 video specs-Univbe. Indycar is VESA 1.2.

  Hello Zack:
 Did you notice a big improvement when you installed the
Pentium 83 Overdrive processor?

  My friend is thinking about upgrading for better game
play in ICR and NASCAR.

  Thanks

  Hello Zack:
  I have noticed the difference too. I have a Pentium 120
with 16mb and a PCI ATI Mach 64 with 2mb Vram and the
Nascar Racing game sometimes got a little choppy when
racing in a pack of cars. This happens mostly in the
corners. The new IndyCar Racing II definitely has a better
graphics engine, it runs a lot smoother than Nascar Racing.
  I prefer to run both games in VGA mode for more real to
life action.
