What are the X-Miles tracks like for Europress Rally Championship?
Could someone describe them please?  Are there any screenshots
around besides the three on the Software2000 web page?
And finally, are they fun/challenging?

Technically very nice, some great cliffs and jumps. However, they are
not in the same vein as the RAC tracks so I would hesitate to compare
them.

To be honest, they are a foretaste of where Europress went wrong in
International Rally Championship - witness the desert sections.

Think arcade...

Seriously though, RAC was excellent and I would willingly pay for
other rallys on the world circuit, even if they didn't upgrade the
game engine or gameplay!

Yeah, they're pretty good. I liked them better than the original
tracks. There's more variety in the environments, and they've
taken more liberties with the tracks (more jumps, tunnels, stuff
like that).

A 3Dfx patch for the original game plus one or two other 'world circuits'
(rather than fictional) would have made a far better & more welcome game
than the IRC that they eventually released instead.
