Hello,
I was just looking at a new *** mag and saw an ad for Mario Andretti's
racing game, Indy Cars, Sprint cars and Stockers, your choice. Has anyone
given this one a try? Thanks.

"Mario Andretti's Racing Challenge" is not new by any means, and I hated
it. The joystick calibration never worked for me, so I sold it. Fast. For
cheap.

simulation!

yep...sure have it's an older game.... the graphics are not near the
quality of any of them out there now... the game was pretty entertaining
for me. supposedly you start out like he did in the smaller cars and
are supposed to work your way up by earning money and then buying bigger
cars (although i was never able to do this)....if you can get it for
under $20 it's probably worth it ... but I wouldn't pay over $20 for it
now.

This may not be the same game, exactly. There is supposed to be a Sega
Genesis version with just the Indy, Sprint and Stock cars, not the six types
in MARC. The ad could be for this, or maybe a new computer version -
probably an ad for the Sega is my guess.
If not, don't pay much for it - save and buy WC or ICR, or their upcoming
sequels.
