#2 ask him, I'm guessing that isn't going to happen soon

#3 The best two I've found are by far Brno, and Mugello.

I say best two mainly because of frame rate.  The other
tracks I've seen are stock F12K conversions, where some
of the objects (fences especially!) make the frame
rate drop to a crawl.  At least is does on a V3 card.

Racer doesn't seem to do too well on Voodoo's. It's better on nVidia
cards (have 2 of those myself).

Thanks for the support; I'm a bit busy the coming time but still
working on it.

| Multiplayer will be in before AI. That gives you essentially extra
| drivers for free in terms of CPU (not gfx though!) and it's easier to
| do multiplayer than AI. :)

Thanks! :)
AI has multiple cars, like Multiplayer. For AI, you must make some
kind of robot to let them drive the car, or get replays (which aren't
in yet) and use that as a guiding line. And tweak ad infinitum.
Ofcourse multiplayer has its problems once you hit modem connections
and lag, but in my eyes it's less uncontrollable than the improvement
potential you have in AI (you can improve AI until you die I think).
