If any of you Viper Racing newbies need some setups, you can try our out here (thanks for the plug, Jay!): http://irlinsider.adnetweb.com/sims/viper.htm Enjoy -- and remember, if you like Viper Racing, you're probably going to want to check out NFSPU, too (but you're going to have to wait a while for it to come down to the $9.99 range)! -- JB In article <xmA45.18706$[email hidden]>, "Jay J" <[email hidden]> wrote: > I found that while it's marked at $12.99 they ring it up at $9.99 atthe > cash register!!!!! > > I saw this same bargain, and thanks to John Bodin, added a few pre-designed > car setups to have some "instant fun" with this excellent sim! > > Frankly, it's physics are second only to GPL and perhaps RC2000 andthis is > a game that came out what, 1 or 2 years ago!!

Saw several copies of Viper Racing at the Norfolk, VA COMPUSA this evening for $12.99.

I found that while it's marked at $12.99 they ring it up at $9.99 at the cash register!!!!! I saw this same bargain, and thanks to John Bodin, added a few pre-designed car setups to have some "instant fun" with this excellent sim! Frankly, it's physics are second only to GPL and perhaps RC2000 and this is a game that came out what, 1 or 2 years ago!! TONS OF FUN, if you haven't purchased this one, go get it!

RC2000? Realistic physics? Oh yes, I forgot, the tracks are steel and the cars' underbellies are magnets in real life too. For a minute there I thought you were serious. Andrew Jay J wrote: > Frankly, it's physics are second only to GPL and perhaps RC2000

TONS OF FUN, ifyou haven't >purchased this one, go get it! > Just thought I'd add that Viper is a beautiful showcase for full screen anti-aliasing (5.22 drivers). I ran it at 1024x768x16-bit color with the slider set all the way to the right on a GeForce2 GTS/450MHz/128MB RAM PC. It was averaging 40 FPS. Turn it down a notch to 800x600 and it's hitting 60. The game is gorgeous and it's still just as fun to drive as it was the day it was released. It really is the second best sim physics-wise to GPL. I'm even more excited for NASCAR Heat knowing that Monster Games did such a great job with Viper. It could be a real shootout for top NASCAR sim this Fall despite Papyrus FINALLY including the GPL physics in NASCAR 4. Don't discount Heat... MGI may be making the better game. -- Dave Long [email hidden] One Gamer's Voice Industry Opinion and Game Impressions Got questions? Get answers over the phone at Keen.com.

Hey, he could be mistaking 'great physics' with 'great handling'. RC2K really does handle well, even if the haybales are... hmm... a bit solid....
