> I have been tring to get a demo, but i dont know what the word stand for. Does > anyone know where you can get a copy of the game? TOCA stands for Touring Car Contructors Association. TOCA Ltd. is an independant, privately owned company established specifically to manage the British Touring Car Championship (BTCC). TOCA is the organiser, administrator & rights holder of the BTCC and is also involved in the operations of the Australian Super Touring Championship and the North American Touring Car Championship. So there, I bet you wished you hadn't asked now!!! Regards.....Mark

That'll be the midgets series then...? :-) It's Short-COURSE Offroad Drivers Association to be fair to the non altidunally challenged racers out there... Cheers! John

Thanks - (even though it's apparently wrong :) ). However - I haven't seen a copy of this game on the shelves. Is it out yet in Britain?

It's called "Gripped" probably because SODA means nothing to us in the UK! It's going for 19.99 in my local Electronic Boutique. Ken -- #include <disclaim>

TOCA has released in the UK, but not in the USA - yet....

Whoops - I meant SHORT-COURSE (Never make a mistake with John Wallace watching) Anyway SODA has been released in the UK, except its called GRIPPED over here. Cos we brits think SODA is something you put in your whisky. 19.95 in E.B. to you my boy. Tony

You guys aren't going to let me get away with this are you? Cheers Tony PS. just checked my the visor on my helmet John W. and its curved in the vertical plane - just waiting for a sunny day to check out the lens flare. Shame I haven't got the bike any more though - look a bit silly on the way to work in a Rover 800!

John Wallace 09 Dec 1997#386282

Damn straight! I'm sure if I ever make a mistake (not that it would ever happen, but try to imagine...!!) there will be plenty of people happy to correct me :) Noooooooooooooooooo! Philistines!!!!!!!!! Cheers! John

Tony Rickard 09 Dec 1997#386283
