F1 Racing Simulator runs too fast!!!

UBI Soft F1 Racing Simulator runs far too fast to play on my nice new P3
600.  Has anyone got any suggestions on how to slow it down to a playable
speed?  A 10 lap race takes about 30 seconds before the computer cars have
finished.

I've sent an email to UBI, but no response from them

HELP!!!

Thanks

Are you running Glide? (3dfx)  I found the same problem with F1RS under
Glide when I had a V3 a few months ago.  There's no way to fix it (I did
try), except to switch to using D3D instead.  Do a D3D install of F1RS, then
get the D3D patch from Ubisoft.  Under D3D there's a maximum frame rate set
in F1RS, but not under Glide.  A slight lack of forsight by whoever
programmed the Glide renderer for F1RS.
