[Bram Hengeveld]

It is still not sure. But ill order my copy from abroad and ship it in for sure :happy:

 

[James Johnson]

they still might release a download version but not much word on that :wink:

 

[RPMNava]

You Bet!..... Ordered parts to build my windows machine last night. Im guessing Ill spend a few months getting up to speed. Im trying to figure out how I can hook more folks using the show to promote. I have two friends that are going to jump in with me and build systems. heres my question.... Can I just race my two buddies online or do We have to jump in and race in a rookie class?

 

[Christopher Aponte]

i think surely you can just race with your buddies online by setting up your own tiny little private server (at least I know SimBin gives that option to it's tittles, so that is surely a standard option)

can someone elaborate what the Nvidia NForce 680 SLi Chipsets are?

 

[Christopher Aponte]

motherboards that have Nvidia Nforce chipset can run Nvidia's graphics card in dual mode

Arca does not run there but what was Winston then Nextel now Sprint Cup does. It's called the Brickyard 400 I think.
