Yeah it's worth the try without a wheel. I have play with it with the keyboard for 1 week and got use to all the auto assist and braking. Without those, you be Fuck on the keyboard. But it's fun playing like that, for championship mode. ANd yes you can watch a race.

I will download LFS Ziploc...as the download from Krazy is gonna take over 24 hours...(currently 5-10 k/sec) but this isnt going to help me test the F1 hosting idea for now...

lol I wish you were in the US. Because I'll do whatever it takes to win the competition just to be able and drive the ferrari around one block. That would be enough for now. Only if my freaking bro sell his Benz S500 with $12k spinning rims, then we'll have our very own ferrari. I say he'd wasted $95k for that damn 03 S500.

LOL dam Jabba your too much friend Your gunna make all these kids crazier than I am with that offer!!!! LOlolo

LOL if you think that Live For Speed game has alot of options, it'll take you a day just to read half of the shit in F1 it EASILY has the most complex car setup and controller setup menu's Ive ever seen, honestly.

The controler alone must have 200 differnt adjustments and the ability to make 4 differnt profiles to compensate for differnt car setups/weather conditions!

Best part is they all are very exacting in duplicating a real world condition... I know a good bit on car setup and they have done a bang up job on getting it right.....


Your getting this from a person who regards EA with the same contempt I have for AOL well there are the same companys LMAO I hate EA... so it says a helluva lot coming out of my mouth...

Thats what puts me off most games today...far too complicated for me to understand...more like work than fun...I just dont have the patience anymore I guess...far to old now to begin learning...(as a wise jedi master once said) I would however love to watch the race in progress....and I was quite excited when someone said this could be done....

in the mean time I am still trying to get to grips with night driver on the atari 2600...remember this krazy ???
