Sorry I thought you got a warm up lap. With no tracks close home I've
really never been to qualifying. Been to alot of races but never made
quailfying.

No complaints from this end. A couple questions maybe, but that's
what were here for, right? BTW anybody looking for a slightly used
copy of Bill Elliott's NC. <G>

I bought the P-90 because that was the ultimate machine available to the
public. Bought the best video card I could find after research.
Alot of the reason I went with a P-90 and not a Dx was I knew Nascar would
be a power hungry beast. I was hoping it would be a great sim, and it is.
And yes the P-90 also runs Word Perfect well. <G>
If I post a question about how to make a pentium perform better in Nascar,
it's not that I'm complaining about the game. I'm simply trying to
get the most performance out of my machine. Which is what racing and
computers are all about. I think Nascar is great, it doesn't bother me
that I have turn a few options off, and I like the fact
that the game keeps the future in mind.

I've ran about 1,000 test laps at Bristol. <G> I feel I'm looking at the
SIMULATOR a good bit. But I got to tell you there's plenty of eye caddy
in the sim for me that goes along well with the reality of the game.
Goodness it doesn't get a prettier that this. I mean it beats watching
T.V.
And I can't afford the CD-I after the P-90. <HG>
Ahhh. That feels better.
