I realize this was probably discussed ages ago but the arcade near my house just installed one of these and I'm curious as to what a "good" time on the Beginner course is... After about an hour and $2, I managed a best lap of 38.90 with a string of three consecutive laps under 39.00 before the "tires" went off but I'll bet there's AT LEAST another .5 second still out there ... any info/times would be greatly appreciated. ___________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________

Keep trying, I pulled two supre fast ones at 28 and a 32 sec. Drive the McLaren, the Williams car islike the team; just not right Besides that who would want to be Prost when you could be Senna. VIVA SENNA! xerrox

Are you serious? I find it hard to believe I was 7 to 11 seconds off the pace ... in fact, I DON'T believe it. There might be another second to be had, perhaps even two or three, but 11? Uh-uh, no way... That said, is it possible there's more than one version of this game out there? ___________________________________________________ ___________________________________________________

Every day me and my co-workers would go to the mall and play 3 or 4 games. Things that we found that helped were: shifting for your self, and falling behind. Yes, thats right, falling behind in two player mode. To keep the race competivite the computer will speed up the car in 2nd place. I didn't say I won the race I pulled those laps in. In fact my ass was kicked rather hard that game. Try 2 player and shift for yourself. Good luck! xerrox

From the sounds of things you're playing different games. We've got a Megadrive in our house with VR on this (I've also played the arcade) and there's NO choice of cars and the fastest lap I've done (with opposition is 38.63s on the basic track. I've pl;ayed a game that allows you to choose the constructor of your choice (Williams, McLaren, Ferrari & Benetton). This could be the one that the other posting means. Max
