Been seeing alot flyin around lately about frame rates, vidoe cards
etc, and thought I'd pass along the setup that works for me.

I am running Nascar 1.12 on a 486\66 DX2-S
16 meg ram
4x CD
256k cache
2meg Stealth 64 Vram
Soundblaster Pro

I am able to use my regular boot up which loads everything, cd,
scanner, video, mouse, windows for workgroups 3.11 etc, etc. And I
have the following options set in NCR:

Graphics:
        Grass texture = OFF
        Object Texture = ON
        Grandstand Texture = OFF (shows stands but no crowd)
        Wall texture = OFF
        Horizon Texture = OFF
        Car texture = ON
        Smoke/Dirt = ON
        Skids/Paint = ON
        Min Frame rate set to 13 (actualy get about 15fps)
        Max set at 30

Opponents:
        7 drawn ahead
        1 drawn behind
        2 heard

Sound:

volumne works for me)

This runs nice and smooth in svga using digitized sound NOT fm.

Try this P90 24meg ram, Stealth3240 2meg Vram, full hard drive load and
running FULL graphics (except road texture).
