This Ubisoft F1RS sim seems to have taken the racing simulation world by
storm.

Who are these guys?  Where are they from.  I never heard of them until I
discovered their other smashing 3d  game Subculture.

These guys have really put the boot to Papyrus (ICR2), Microprose (GP2) and
Microsoft (CPR).

I shudder in anticpation for their next *** tour de force.

They are a French company and, with the release of F1RS, have really had the
same impact in 1998 as Papyrus did in ? when they released "Indianapolis 500".

You probably wouldn't notice the impact on your body made by a speeding
Mack truck.
I suggest that you visit your nearest optometrist and get some glasses.
Either that or visit Britain/Europe/Australia/New Zealand/Japan/South
America (you know...those little bits of the world outside North America)
and see how many people are running the sim in preference to GP2.  Or even
browse through the magazine reviews that have appeared since the sim was
released.

You can add South Africa to that list. The game was released here in
DECEMBER!

And as much as I LOVED Nascar2, F1RS has them ALL beat.

   Speaking of reviews Bruce, did you see the one in PC Powerplay. The
reviewers sirname says it all - Wildgoose. Looks like a once great mag
is on the slide.
