I want to know if its going to run well on my system, P200 mmx 32 megs of ram,
and a Monster 3d. Those of you who have bought the game, what are you running
it on?

Hello
ram,
and a Monster 3d. Those of you who have bought the game, what are you running
it on<<
Welcome to the club!!! I have a P200 mmx, 64 meg of ram, and a 4meg screamin
3d from Sierra. Plop GPL in and it runs DECENT (around 20 fps)at some road
courses such as Katyama<sp>...but at Monaco its about 15fps. This is when I
drive alone...
When i have other cars around me....oh man...about 10-15 fps :(
I'm going to get another video card and see if this improves anything. If not,
WAAAAAA!!!!!!

If you have L2 cache on your machine, GPL should run fairly well. See
my GPL Hardware FAQ for an extensive discussion of GPL and hardware:

Kangaroo is an funky animal in the land of "Auseeeeee'zs"
Kaleidoscope is made for funky people (hehe BK good inside joke!)
Kindergarten is what r.a.s. was made for in a first place ;-P
Kite is a synonym for when my GPL funky car is airbone !
A funky Keyboard isn't really what you should race with
Aren't we off-topic now heh ? (actually it's _just_ to bring BK so he
replies to this post hehe)
Remember it's ALL IN THE FUNK !!!!
May the Funk be with you...

summer of love and the land of the funk ;-D )

So I'm guessin my p-133 80 megs of ram, 1mb trident video card, and 3
hardrives (256mb, 1.6g, 4.3g) wouldn't work???

Unless you like racing in 320x200 at around 3fps (Im serious).
2 problems here...
- P-133 (minimum is a P166, but I would guess a PII 233mhz is pretty enough)
- 1mb trident video card. (at least upgrade this to a Rendition card)
You could easily get what I said for... around 500$ ? (I might be wrong but
it's close)

I don't think so. My P166 (overclocked to 200MHz) with Monster 3D runs GPL
no problem with all details in practice, and racing is no problem as long as
you limit the number of opponents or turn off some graphics. Motocross
Madness and Colin McRae also work fine. So you can keep your old PC and
spend the money on games and controllers instead!

I usually run Monza races with 11 opponents, but have also run full 19
opponent races. I cut the track objects to "many" instead of "all". The
framerate on the grid is the minimum I see, usually low ***s. In a full
field, I find it useful to drop detail to "few" for the start only. Typical
conditions are "many" and I see 20+ fps for the entire track (except the
launch). But I must say that 20 doesn't feel as smooth here as it does in,
say, a flight sim. I find I need more frames for smooth driving than for
flying (not surprising).
In one race, it bogged down to 3-5 fps for about 10 seconds. On replay, I saw
that it corresponded to a ~ ten car pileup behind me!
flawless with _all_ options turned on at 800X600. 1024X768 is possible,
and pretty, but unrealistic for racing against any number of opponents. i
play 8X6 with 15 opponents at any track and seem to maintain anywhere from
25 to 40 fps.... nothing scaled back on the options.
333's are cheap. celerons even cheaper... amybe the new celeraon 'A'
series is a possible upgrade (and you can overclock the living hell out of
them). plus, the full speed cache on the chip makes it the equivalent of
a baby Xeon processor.
good luck,
