Hardware recommendations? (race simulator)

I'm setting up a racing simulator for a friend who will be driving in the TransAm race at Long Beach. Right now, we're going with the following hardware: Pentium 133 w/ 16Mb RAM 20" monitor Stealth 64 w/ 2Mb VRAM AWE32 w/4x CD-ROM T1 controller Can anyone recommend anything else we should do? We'll be using IndyCarII, but also NASCAR w/ the track conversion program in search of something close to a TransAm car's performance. (Is anybody interested in assisting with a TransAm carset?) If anyone's interested in cheering for us, Mike will be in the #55 red, white & blue Mustang with the Red Line Oil decals (unless we get some serious sponsorship :) Note to Papyrus, if anyone's monitoring: We used the old IndyCar game to help Mike learn Mid Ohio for the SCCA national chamionships. The results? 1994 (first time at Mid O) 1995 GT-1 (TransAm type cars) qual-3rd, finished-4th q.-2nd, f.-1st! GT-3 q. 1st! f.-dnf q.-3rd f.-2nd Thanks, Greg

Given the 20" monitor alone is probably going to cost as much as the rest of the kit, aren't you skimping a bit on the TM T1 controller? There's the T2, TSW, and ECC CDS, plus a "Procontroller" that I know nothing about. Stuart -- Stuart Booth ... Somewhere in Epsom, England, UK.
