Must admit, I get the same sort of thing happening to me. I have tried all
sorts of different
config settings regarding graphics etc. I always seem to not have complete
control of the
car, almost as if being hit from behind syndrome.
Any help with this would be appreciated.

I have the UK version, the 1.08 patch, a 200MMX with a Canopus Pure3D.
Is it just me or does it seem that my car doesn't seem to stick in the
corners quite as well during a race as it does by myself, time attack etc.?
It may be that I get pumped up in the actual race and overdrive it a little.
Maybe frame rate drops a little too making it a little harder to drive with
other cars to "draw".

I probably got so used to the complete control you have over your car
when
alone on the track, that I can't tolerate the loss of fps in a race.
Hoping for a big price cut for PII CPUs and Voodoo2 cards... ;^)

drive with other cars to "draw".
You *usually* have more fuel on for an actual race, so the car is
heavier, more sluggish in handling, etc. Also people usually have a
slightly more conservative set-up for races, than they do for
qualifying/hotlapping/etc?
Also, as you say, the adrenalin gets pumping during a race, and it is
very easy to outbrake/outdrive yourself.
Frame rates dropping? depends on your set-up and the options you have
selected, But I think it's probably more of the former.

Have P166, with Monster 3DFX, I have done only the min install (no
disk space left..), and only 16MB memory.
Would it be the memory, or the install, or something else?
Thanks.

hi - no i keep replays off.

BTW, I still have to redo a test with patch V1.05, because I had a
feeling,
the framerate got worse with V1.08...
