Hey Gang, Got my new computer assembled, tweaked, tuned, and ready this morning about 3. :) This afternoon I installed N4 (from a Pioneer DVD drive no less!!) and ran a few laps with a gamepad just to see what it was like. After messing around at Daytona solo, I decided to try against some competition. I ran 4 laps with a 20 car field. On lap 2, Rusty and I were trading paint going into the tri-oval when he backed off a bit, then took me out!!! 3 laps later, we got mixed up again. This is unreal. Now I gotta get my wheel set up and try to spend some time with this game. I'm impressed!!! Russ

It's amazing what a 4 digit clock speed does for computer games. Russ "Don Burnette" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:uUEi6.280126$[email hidden]...

It's posted elsewhere, but in a nutshell: Athlon 1 Ghz 256 Megs RAM 64 Meg DDR Radeon VIVO card 40 Gig ATA 100 RAID Array Soundblaster Live! 16x DVD 12/10/32 CD R/W Been running in D3D with high details, over 20 cars, and no stuttering. But then again, I've only been playing for a couple hours now. Russ
