Everyone agrees TOCA is brilliant; maybe not for total (anoraks on)
accuracy but for sheer
wrestle-the-vehicle-round-the-circuit-and-have-fun-ability it can't be
beaten. So why so few posts here about it? Is it because its
hard/impossible to get it in the USA? Just wondering.

1) Hard to get out of Europe
2) Not much websites created for it
3) Difficult for third party utilities (reason for 2) ).
4) For me and many, it's a fun game (classed with MTM), so when I load it
it's actually to have fun. If something is wrong, if the AI is sometimes
dumb, I don't care, I am having fun.

And I don't like companies who say even before the title is out that they
are already working on "TOCA2". A little bit too "Bethsoft" (heheheh)

I have looked for it in many stores here(Babbages, hastings, best buys,
software etc, walmart) and absolutely cannot find it. If anyone knows where
to get it I would be most appreciative.

Probably everyone's too busy playing the GPL demo.
