Hey Gang,
Got my new computer assembled, tweaked, tuned, and ready this morning about
3.  :)  This afternoon I installed N4 (from a Pioneer DVD drive no less!!)
and ran a few laps with a gamepad just to see what it was like.  After
messing around at Daytona solo, I decided to try against some competition.
I ran 4 laps with a 20 car field.  On lap 2, Rusty and I were trading paint
going into the tri-oval when he backed off a bit, then took me out!!!   3
laps later, we got mixed up again.  This is unreal.  Now I gotta get my
wheel set up and try to spend some time with this game.  I'm impressed!!!

It's amazing what a 4 digit clock speed does for computer games.

It's posted elsewhere, but in a nutshell:
Athlon 1 Ghz
256 Megs RAM
64 Meg DDR Radeon VIVO card
40 Gig ATA 100 RAID Array
Soundblaster Live!
16x DVD
12/10/32 CD R/W

Been running in D3D with high details, over 20 cars, and no stuttering.  But
then again, I've only been playing for a couple hours now.
