I see there is a demo of this on the June Computer Gaming, has anyone kindly
uploaded this for the masses to try? A report on High Gear said a mega PC
was needed, but that was running with a Voodoo 5500, has anyone tried it
with a T&L card?
Codemasters' Race Driver demo on a magazine cover disc
A demo of Codemasters' TOCA Race Driver appeared on Computer Gaming World's June cover disc, and readers asked for it to be shared. Doug Hook tried it and liked the graphics and physics, but found that controllers had to be reconfigured each time. The thread drifted into NHL playoff banter.
Automated summary.
Please. can someone put this demo on kaazaa, or other filesharing program?
I think its the V5 that isnt so good for new'er games that needs DX8. It
would probably run better on geforce.

Considering I was running F1 2001 at 25 fps with my V5 at mid detail and
115 fps with a GF3 Ti 500 at full detail, I'm not too worried about this
game on a modern video card. ;0)

I've searched the internet for such a thing, but I couldn't come up with
anything. Could you please post a link to the article you read?
Thanks,

Nope it is in the US. Just picked it up at EB on my way home from work.The
magazine has a picture of Mt Rushmore with the Sims characters instead of
presidents on the cover. I will install it later and let you guys know what
I think. Gotta watch my Bruins beat the Canadiens first. :-)

Though you can occasionally find it in really big newsagents in British
cities - try WH Smith in Birmingham, for example.

Come on! You knew better then that. It's traditional for Mtl to put the
Bruins out of the play-offs. :O)
I'm an old Montrealer who can remember the glory days of the 50's and 60's
so please forgive the dig.

I will be in mourning for the next few days.

Go Celtics!!!

I expect that I'll be joining you in mourning after our (Montreal's) next
series. :O(
But for now there's always a miracle to count on. :O)

yes. I like it and can't wait for the full game to be released. Nice
graphics and physics. The demo is kind of a pain . You have to reconfigure
your controller every time you want to play it. 4 views( f10,cockpit,hood
and bumper)The cockpit view is a little hard because the windshield had kind
of a blue tint to it making it hard to see. Damage is the best I have ever
seen.The demo gives you a 3 lap race against 5 other cars .All are supra
turbos. sounds are excellent too. menus are clean and cool looking. I think
this is a big winner.there is a screen that says this demo represents only
60% completion and is dated 2000. Also says June 28 release date. Bring it
on.
