I upgraded to a P3 500 but still using my V2's in SLI, and now I can race with
all cars at a decent frame rate(26 at start, 45 later) but with mirrors turned
off. With mirrors on, it slows down to 13 fps at start and 23 later.
I tried other graphic settings, but they dont change the fps as much as mirrors.
Is there a video card that does not slow down the frame rate as much with
mirrors turned on?

I've got aPIII running at 581 and Geforce 256 DDR and Voodoo2 SLI. It runs
much faster as you'd expect with GeForce and looks so much better to boot
but it still isn't really fast. Mirror are OK on but I don't put any extras
in them. All the rest of the detail settings I have on maximium except I
only view 10 cars. I switched off Force feedback and that made things about
25% quicker. To make it fly I think you need a mega fast processor. It's
really poorly programed when you compare it to other stuff about today.

Thanks, I would like to use mirrors even if they only show the cars. the GeForce
with V2 SLI sounds like a good option for games that dont quite work well with
GeForce.
I see no difference in fps with my LWFF on or off.
