I just got SCGT and is this a great game or what? As a newbie, I have a
few questions.
Is it possible to race multiple class races in career mode? Also is
there anyone working on a Motorola Cup carset (like the ALMS carset)? I
found a few Motorola Cup cars around the Web, but a full carset would be
really nice.
Thanks a lot!

Is there anyplace to download SP3 as ONE file instead of all those
seperate files? I have DSL (at work only!) and downloading all those
individual files would be WAY too big a pain in the ass!

you can download multiple files at once.
Get a dload manager. Go!Zilla or Getright, you can schedule downloads
while you asleep or away. You can resume inter-rupted dloads. You will
find the service pak archive is NOT happy with Netscape. If you try and
grab the service pak with netscape you will end up having to do it all
over. Go!zilla is free. Get it...let it do the work. once you have
Go!zilla installed, just surf to the dload page where all the SP3/0
files are kept. Then choose the "leech files" option in Go!zilla. From
there you can either start dloading right away, or schedule the sessions
for another time. Easy painless and far more reliable than using your
browser.

(snip a bunch of otherwise good advice)
The problem with using Go1zilla or Getright nowadays is that you may be
unknowingly installing a program that actively brings adverti***ts to you.
The Aureate program sets up something that looks a *lot* like a server on
your machine and then asks other machines to send you ads that are
supposedly tailored to your tastes. It installs as a rider to the programs
above (plus many others) without asking for permission, operates without
your consent in stealth mode and requires fiddling with the registry to get
rid of. While I don't much care if some marketer knows what I look at I do
object to the sneaky way that this program goes about its job on MY machine.
If this bothers you you can get more details and a complete list of
programs "infected" with Aureate (279 of 'em at last count) check this site:

Can Aureate be got rid of with EndItAll or similar, or is a registry
hack the *only* way?

Best thing is to do a file search on your computer for a file called
advert.dll. Another thing that happens is a folder called AMC (it'll hold
several advertising banners) gets created in your windows folder. Look for a
registry key called HKEY CURRENT USER\SOFTWARE\Aureate . You can delete all
of the above to rid yourself of it. AS ALWAYS, Back up your registry before
fiddling with it.

The Simpons guide to Springfield book from Amazon.com (Ok I like the show
but probably wouldn't buy a book about it. I'll give them a break on it and
gibe them +1)
another Amazon book about day trading. (I don't do stocks, minus 1)
A New Netalica CD (Ok I never really liked these guys, and they're just
getting worse -1 again)
A Beck CD (Again not what I like, -1)
A Primus CD (-1 nuff said)
An add from Aureate themselves selling ad space (Ok I admit if I didn't
totally go against this whole Idea I could use it +1)
A couple e-tour guides (I don't need a guide, I'm good at online
research -1)
Bank 1 ad for e-commerce ( I guess this one hits everyone +1)
Orange Soda.com (Have no idea, but orange soda is ok in my mind so... +1 I
guess)
Dilbert comics (Nope sorry -1)
VISA (Credit isn't for me right now -1)
-3 on it, or about a 50% hit rate, I don't think that was worth invading my
privacy for, and a waste of money for VISA and Amazon, since I won't buy
from them until they apologies.
