ICR2 Demo Bugette!

I was doing my qualifying lap at Michigan just a little while ago when
something odd happened. I'd just crossed the start/finish line and the
green flag waved to signal the start of the timed lap. I got as far as
the end of the pit lane when suddenly my car started spinning wildly
round and round. Like some of the steep banked Nascar tracks when you
hit them from below the runoff strip at the wrong angle.

Thing is, I had a look at the replay and was very surprised. In one
frame I was at the end of the pit lane. In the previous frame I'm back
halfway over the start/finish line, and a further frame back takes me
back to the pit lane area!!! No wonder it got confused!

Unfortunately I couldn't save it because this is only a (very
functional it has to be said) demo.

Oh, and there's a spelling mistake in the list of trademarks,
likeness' etc at the end of the credits ... ONLY KIDDING! But that was
some list regardless!!

Lastly, using the supplied UNIVBE with my ATI Mach64/P90 is MUCH MUCH
slower. Very choppy indeed. I promptly removed it.

This is some "game"...
