My impressions after a couple of days Strong Points: 1. camera view system. 2. Kick ass sound 3. streering control (Car responds well) 4. Smoke effects 5. crash effects 6 Track modeling 7. Variable user skill levels 8. Replay system 9. Sense of speed 10.Realistic pass effects (tire shaking , dropping cylinders? blown engine) 11. Driver views 12. Strong AI (Force kick my ass last night) 13 Force's burnout ....I laughed my ass off at three in the morning when I saw this! 14. Budget feature in season mode 15 I could go on and on ...great job, Tantrum! Weak points: 1. Load times, load times, load times ! 2. Voodoo 2 graphics quality (it can be better!) examples include Andretti Racing, F1RS, Motoracer, Unreal..etc 3. Dash art work (In car facing forward) 4. detectable repeating sound loop during full pass 5. Apparent 640x480 resolution limit 6. Foot pedal controller issue There is not a whole bunch wrong here, although the problems are in my opinion fairly serious. Overall a strong program. I think the major thing that would cause me to shelf this game is load times, believe it or not. During test a tune the load time issue is a real game wrecker. Thanks Craig Lewisville TX
