Interesting, I'm using a V3 2000 and I think the reflections look great! -- don New GPL Programs for the Converted Tracks: http://www.ianparker1.plus.com/gpl/bapom/

To all those I read here, that cannot see reflections when water is on the track, I get them quite clearly.  It does look rather spectacular, seeing the tall buildings of Montreal, reflecting at certain parts of the track.  I also got this on a dry track (looked soaked though) until I upgraded the video drivers.  I have a rather slow computer (MMX200) and old video card (Rendition, Screamin' 3D), but it does run, although slowly. -- Race Fan Supreme Stephen Staneland Steve's Golf & Tennis Visit the AMW Race Team at http://AMWracing.homestead.com/Main.html
