Here are some shots at matrox.com about Microprose' Spirt of Speed.
Environmental bump mapping looks pretty darn trick.

LOL indeed. I'm getting goose bumps from those screenshots, though maybe
one should experience it in "live" and full screen to be able to
appreciate it.

But look at those speeds. 2-12 mph! I guess the guys at Matrox figured
that anything above that would kill the fun since you wouldn't be able to
see their excellent bumps.

        With such a reply, sounds to me they are trying to pass an Arcade game
as a sim!

just my opinion,

I believe it was just on the road surface.  Anyways, static shots dont do
much for me either..but then again I really have no interest at all in the
game. :)
