Good reply, specially considering this: http://www.atlasf1.c...TML/000360.html

Hey, those requirements look reasonable enough...but I suppose I'm gonna have to buy that 3D card at last!
;)

Oh, by the way Eli, was there anything else in the booklet that might be of interest to the rest of us?

*sigh of relief*
I was afraid I'd have to buy a whole new computer but seems like some more horsepower (new processor) would do the trick.

Spring-Heeled Jim,

Check this site: http://gp3.gamestats.com/ I took it from there.

I saw my first commercial advert for GP3 in a British Racing Mag either Motor or Autosport. I was thumbing through both and cant recall which but it promised a July release for GP3. The main topic of the advert was a Grand Prix Manager program, not a racing sim as such but a sim where one does the Ron Dennis thing and attempts to win the WDC/WMC titles by managing an F1 Team.

Anyone familiar with this product and is their any chance it will have links to GP3. This could be the mother of all sims where we can both run the team, assist in the design and drive the car! Shades of Jack Brabham and Bruce McLaren!

One could get in there and never come out!

I can't wait for GP3, have you seen the movies of the game in action on www.grandprix3.com

I downloaded the 3MB one and it looked really good, although the picture quality is a bit grainy

I have some margin on the 3D card, but my other specs are pretty much the minimum required, so I guess that means untextured polygons at 10 fps...? Oh well, maybe I'll buy it anyway just to get the stylish box.
