NASCAR PC speed?

>Has anyone tried to run NASCAR on a machine that is slower than >33 mhz. I've got a 20 mhz pc, and was wondering if it would work. >What is the minimum speed for Indycar, BTW? I'm sure it would *run*, per se, but it'd be VERY slow, probably to the point of pulling your hair out and saying something like "this game sucks!" when in reality, your processor just can't handle the load... turn off ALL graphics and try it. ps: have you tried the demo? Go #6 Mark Martin and #16 Ted Musgrave - Jack Roush Racing!! NASCAR Racing!! [link lost in import: /~sean/nascar/nascar.html] <--NASCAR Racing Sim page
I have a 25 MHz computer with 8MB RAM. Nascar runs great with most of the graphics extras turned off, and less than 20 cars starting in each race. Once you turn on the road texture, or heavy combinations of the other graphics options, the game starts to slow down. As long as you aren't expecting virtual reality or something, you don't have to spend $5,000 on a Pentium computer just to play games.
