fully 3D physics (like viper) that allow the car to move in the X, Y, and Z
axis realistically. just a better overall racing feel results....
you should give it a try...

From what I've heard, it's about a 30+MB download. With my computer,
that'll take about six hours. I'm not really up for it...

Is there anything new in Nascar Heat that we don't have in N3 (or won't
have in N4)? I'm curious, because I haven't been concerned with NH, but
I'm hearing some good reviews. Career mode? Winston Select? Easily
edited tracks? What's the hype? (other than Daytona)

hey why sweat a 6 hour dload? Get a dload manager and start the dload when
you are about ready to to to bed. Wake up the next morning,,,,you'll have
the demo...if it stops or gets interuppted, you can use the dload manager to
restart where-ever you left off on the next night....
Really, the folks here have been "MIGHTYLY" impressed with NH. so far I
have only seen two negative threads...
a. It doesn't support custom joystick combo's easily
b. Multiplayer is limited to 16 on a lan or 8 via the net.
(the Sierra/Papyrus marketing wolves are already lining up for that
one!)
Since it is due out this next week(Aug 22nd) taking a look at the demo may
help you decide whether or not to part company with your cash.
I used to recomend GoZilla or Getright as dload managers, but some users
don't like them because they apparently keep track of your dloads for the
manufactuers. There are others....hopefully someone will chip in here with
some of the newer, free dload managers. Have fun!

I personally have begun to hate those 2 programs...I've found they got kinda
quirky on my old system (as well as a friend's) and would crash Win98.
One program I like to use when I run the computer overnight is Download
Accelerator Plus since it has a feature where once activated it will hang
upon finishing the assigned downloads. It's also a very fast download
manager. I know when I'm behind a T1 at college I usually would get for a
max of about 120kbps for 3 files on the same server; with DAP in the exact
same situation I would get about 270kbps, just a slight gain :-). On my 56k
I also am about 33-50% quicker which is quite significant for anything over
a couple megs in size.
http://www.speedbit.com/
Another one I use is netvampire just because you can drop as many files at
once as you would like, although it is not accelerated to the best of my
knowledge. Neither program has given me the problems I've gotten with
GetRight or GoZilla.

FWIW, I believe that NetVampire also tracks your downloads (and possibly all of
your online activity), same as GoZilla and Getright. If you're interested, go
to www.grc.com and download the program called OptOut (it's free) to see if
there's any software on your system that's "spying" on your online activity,
then delete that program, if you like.

of neat. It's called "Beat the Heat", which sort of gives you various
scenarios to compete in, as kind of a practice mode.

connections.

The first 2 test in the demo :
- taking a curv
You hav to take a cruv at full speed and time limitation
- Drafting
You start 4, and must be 3 in 3 rounds, you'r partner can help you , you can
draft him.
There's also a beat the Champs !
You compete a ghost car of Nascar champ on the tracks.
Didn't see a Carrer mode.
Car Physics is excellent !!!!
IMHO :o)
