GTA 3, how do you start the race ?

Hi BountyWarrior, scamper,

Cheers, yes i thought it was GTA3 also.

But as i am unfamiliar with this range of games,
i can see that there might be similar games along the
same lines, maybe thats what 'Vice City' is or 'Grand
Turismo 3' these i don't know.

Yes i am still on the first island of GTA3, so i am
glad to hear that there is something to it, and i will
take those missions a bit more seriously. Ive been just
playing around and i didn't realise that they would
'enable' other sections of the game.
(ive only recently found the zombies tunnel, thats how
new i am to this!) And i found a crazy jump through a
wall by an alley-way, the alley-way where the gun is
halfway along in a back-yard.

I take it you mean 'Hungry Hobo' when you say 'Hippo'
there is a game - hungry hippo - you may have put a
typo!

I will try to do missions for the Diablos to get to
the races, just to get one of these motors.

I am not being sarcastic, nor trying to be.
In fact i was concerned that you thought so.
I re-read my posts to see why you should say that.
If i had seen anything that looked sarky to me,
i would have changed it. (edited) and said so,
and said why.

And i wonder if i can get to the light-house ?
I walked along the over-hanging rock, in case i might
see something ... maybe a causeway at low tide ...
anything ... but no i cant see any way to the light-
house. I am wondering if there is a little boat put
somewhere out of the way, maybe a row-boat or motor
boat hiding somewhere.

Maybe i have to do a mission before it will appear ?

This game and PS2 was bought new, there are no bits
of paper missing, the maps are awful, and there isn't
a sort of overview or outline of what to do.
Maybe thats supposed to be part of the game.

Thanks for your advice, maybe i can get a 'Cheetah'

Cheers, John
