What's the full version like? I've played the demo and it's really
jumpy, even on my Pentium 120. Is the full version better? Anyone know
where I can download the full version?

The current issue of Boot magazine has a short review of it in a article on
MMX support, and basically says that it's a total cpu hog and even on a P200
you'll get slideshow framerates in SVGA. Sounds like a huge dissapointment.
Your not going to download the full version from anywhere, it would be
monsterous, but you will probably be able to pick it up in the bargain bins
before long as I don't think it's going to sell to well.

I bought the full version and it runs fine on my
P166/64mb ram/Blaster 3D/T2. Not jumpy at all. Actual thrill
factor is somewhat low compared to N2, but my 7yr old loves
playing it

I could never get the demo to work at all.

The full version is very smooth and looks great on my p133. The games BIG
downfall is that it has limited car selection (2 + 1 hidden) and limited
tracks (3 + 1 hidden). You will lose interest in it very quickly. I dug
it out again after getting my T2 but even that didn't last long.

As for downloading the full version, it is not free so go out and buy it if
you want it. Sheeesh, I wouldn't have the nerve to post a question like
that to a public newsgroup.
