Another good reason to look into the Diamond Edge. With that card I
feel will be able to have sampled sounds for car engines. No more FM
stuff. And No the final product is no different in the sound dept.

Although I'm still in the early stages myself, I get the same feeling.
During a Nascar game to me things feel a little hotter out there. Also

graphics even in VGA.
