>How exactly do you make the measurements?  Thanks.

Hi Mark,

Easiest way I found was to use a stopwatch during a race. Start it
when the lights go green and then compare the total race time to that
given in the race results.

Cheers,
Richard

Richard!!!

Give us some warning before posting an apology to this newsgroup.
Unexpected behaviour like that can get us a bad name...! ;)

Cheers!
John

Hi John,

Just think what it would be like if everyone was reasonable, pleasant,
informative, etc. Would probably completely destroy the character of
r.a.s....

Cheers,

: I have since made some measurements of
: my own and recorded between a 3.2% and 3.9% compression. This was on a
: P133 with processor occupancy as low as 25% for one test!

Thanks for confirming the problem! Errr... I mean.. I would rather, that you
disproved the problem, naturally :)
Now, I guess, it is time to flame Microprose!
