I used it because the race keept restarting every time I tried it, after approx 10 sec.
I have tried just burning it with both clone and cdrwin, but it didnt help
The game does work with the selector
Should I have used another patch
Hope that answers your quistions, otherwise just ask again
Thx in Advance
