Ok lets get a pace car going.. hmm menu system looks like it was written by a ... took me ages to find pro mode, simple enough now I have done it once, just brain dead I guess. ok be nice Mark your just not used to it tis all.(after falling off the bike maybe I hit my head) After a bit of fiddling I think I have sorted it out. Id'd a car as pace car. Was strange that I could set the pacer speed with the arrow buttons but I had to plug a controller in so I could hit the small button so as to change the pace lane change mode to random. Anyway the get out of menu mode just feels unintuitive but we got there and set the yellow flag mode and hit start and away we go.
Hey not bad that certainly mix up the fun a little.. Got stuck behind the silly pacer a few times..ok this is good. oops im off..break..everyone stops I place myself back on ...oo I have to reach over and hit the start button ok I guess thats the best they can do. I couldnt seem to work out a pause either Will have to read the manual again.
Hey lets try 2 pace cars...And were racing....SAFE.. all stop ... what? ohh yeah may need the other power supply but its like in some wierd no go world of its own, well thats going back to the shop.

Ok so other than the bad psu(we'll chalk that as bad luck) and the gobbldegoo menu system, pretty chuffed with it. There will be some hours of fun to be had.
Im not sure what to do at the end of a race tho, F1, 20 laps Car 1 wins then its stops everyone. then some numbers come up. Must have missed where in the manual it explains what these are. erm I push buttons in the hope of getting the cars back to the grid so we can have another race...oops there goes the pace cars round n round... fair enough, grab it as it comes around. I wonder if there is an all stop button, I thought start/stop would do that..maybe Im in some weird mode..BTW screen needs backlighting or side lighting, A couple of LEDs would have solved that guys geesh,
I still feel like Im missing a manual..
Now sleep and we'll have a quick fling tomorrow then I must put it away for the weekend other prioritys take precedence.
