Ok, someone gave me a link to the demo, I got it (thanks, thats a GREAT site
*grin*). However, I do have yet another question. This may have been posted,
but if it was, I missed it. Under options, what are those "Hacks"? The "Horn
ball (whatever)" and the "Pave the World". What are they, and what do they do?
I checked them, but didn't see much of a dif. Do I need to restart the demo to
see them?

Horn ball shoots out a very heavy steel ball from your car which can
damage other cars when you press "H".
Pave the world makes all the grass and stuff that isnt the track have
the same grip as the track, so you can go offroad without loosing
traction.

when you enable Hornball, if you then press H for the car's horn
while you're driving, a large solid ball plonks out of your car to
cause havoc. very weird:) i have never tried it myself, but the guy
i multiplayer race against uses it so i've been smashed up a few times.
Pave the World makes all the ground - grass, dirt, etc - as grippy
as tarmac so you can go on safari.

  Definitely try "Pave the world". If you drive long enough (just follow the forest
"wall"), it should be easy to find the spot where you can drive off the edge of "the
world". Talk about seeing aerodynamics at terminal velocity! Very cute! :) -TJ-
