Then NHRA Drag Racing 1 wouldn't be much of a bargain at $19, which is why I
brought up NHRA DR2.

Enjoy!! :-) > > Gosh, you just can't win around here. ;) > > (For those that didn't get Thom's joke, > NHRA Drag Racing 2 is published for a retail price of $20)Well I personally have Burnout and NHRA. Being a bracket racer myself I much
prefer the Bethsoft titles. Burnout has a full blown dyno program built into
it so you can completely build the car form heads, cams, carbs, intakes etc.
Granted there isn't much driving to Burnout, I play it with a keyboard, so
these GPLers won't under stand it, but if love wrenching on cars you will
and trying new stuff out then Burnout would be a good choice. If you just
want to hop in and drive a heads up race the NHRA is better suited to you. I
don't know if you can find Burnout or Burnout PCE anymore, but I would have
to believe from what I have seen that the IHRA title would pretty much be
the same. Also IHRA might be a better choice if you don't have a Voodoo
based video card. I'm stuck running Burnout in software mode because I can't
run glide since a switch to a geforce card. IHRA does support D3D and is $20
