A replay is available. I would think though, that you would be able to do much better with a joystick. +------------------------------------------------------+ John Krutke -=<>=- Sysop of Vital Signs BBS, Oshkosh, WI World Wide Web: http://www.atw.fullfeed.com/~jkrutke Visit my Fade to Black page, and The Need For Speed page +------------------------------------------------------+

If so, no wonder. I don't think so. NFS record-setting was happening at a fevered pitch the first few weeks after the game came out. Personally, I only got my record down to 8:1x.xx (can't remember exactly, but it was a record for a while!) when news came of 8:00 being broken. I'd think that the current record was set on a Diablo. Driving the course properly on the Warrior would result in a much, much lower time. So yes, the record is probably true and was probably done in a "real" car. Martin Vertigo Ridge: 9:24.2!
