Hey. Anyone heard any info on this game lately? I'm really expecting this to be a good sim, so any info someone has would be much appreciated. Thanks, Tom

You're right. Starting grid will be edited by C***+ Multimedia and has nothing to see with F1RS from Ubi Soft. I've heard some weeks ago that Starting Grid should be out the 1st quarter of '98. See ya Stephane

This is not true. Check out http://www.visiware.com/ for details.

To my knowledge this is incorrect. Visiware couldn't get a license. Thats why it's not released. I said the same thing a couple of months ago and got corrected. I doubt you will ever see Starting Grid. Cheers, Harald

Okay, thanks for all the info. Hope they can get a license. The game looked good to me. Thanks, Tom

>This is not true. Check out http://www.visiware.com/ for details. Thanx for the info. Hmm...3DFX version :) I hope they can release it soon so we can compare it to F1RS.

The billion dollar quastion is... can Starting Grid even compare with Ubi F1? Looking at the shots, Ubi has the upper hand, and most people are impressed with the gameplay so Visiware will have to go some to beat it! -- Dave Bowers

Visiware had problems getting a distributor for the game and it should be out next year sometime. The game is completed just needs the right distributor. cheers, Chatham

Thing with that is, my computer can't handle The Ubisoft game, but looks like it can the Visiware game. Anyone Know if a Screamin 3d card by Sierra would work with Ubi Soft's game? I only have a 100mhz pentium. Thanks, Tom
