Funked, you rule - I love this stuff. Thanks.
I actually went out and got the complete Momo racing set-up based on your posts about Nascar, and had a blast with it.
Played a bunch of this other driving game you recommended too (forget what it was called.... beta-ish, jap-type cars, but hella-fun).
At the time I was, lets just say...
under the influence. And I sucked.
And during that time, I pawned a 20G Ipod for 40 bucks, a G4 for 80 bucks, and lost the entire contents of my home.... but I managed to hang on to my racing gear. That says something. To me at least.
That I am a complete and total idiot. 
But, here I am... still with the racing gear. I'd love to get into it again. Too bad it's console.
In the meantime, I can watch these vids.
Thanks Funked.
