Yes, I posted about this a week ago.. ---------------------------------------- AVOID AVOID AVOID!!! I just gave it a try - I chose 'Dutch Track' which is an extremely poor done version of Zandvoort - the layout hardly is like the real one, and no, the real Zandvoort is NOT shattered with windmills! I won my first race on my first try, with the AI on the hardest level. About 2 minutes margin on number 2. On a 6 laps race :-/ Then I turned on the force feedback.. The game started and I didn't know how fast I should press the escape key since my Momo started to make REALLY scary sounds! Ofcourse, the physics are laughable. Utter crap. Shame of my $1 cd. Andre

<snip> I agree 100%. Kind of appalling that Sir Frank would lend his name to this kind of crap (if he ever saw it at all). You know, though, done right, this would be an excellent concept for a game, especially if it contained a management feature.

Yup, the concept is great, a career mode in racing.. starting with kart and climbing up to F1 cars.. Unfortunately it couldn't have been worse implemented than Williams F1 did :( Andre
