F1 2000 Track Realism (world at 2.5 feet)

I played around with the .95 version of F1 2000, and I must say
I like it. I do hope the final version has better fps etc. but I
will buy this game.

On comment - I've seen alot of negative comments about the track
modeling. Well try to remember how low you sit in a F1 car.
Under 3 feet off the ground. The world looks different down
there...remember when you were that tall? Ask any 3 year old.

I walked entire Spa track afetr race in 98 and drove it (in a
rental took alot of discipline not to "have a go" through Eau
Rouge). But although some of the evelvation may seem
exaggerated, I think it is dead on...when your view is that low.

Also the tracks seem narrow, but I think that may be because
they are trying to give you a fish eye view, which is also why
the tires seem so big.

This game may not be perfect out of the box, but it is good and
from what the developers say I think it will get better and
better.

So when you are at 2.5feet off the ground you can also see bumps where there
aren't any?
