The readme indicates that you will only get SVGA when running on a Pentium. I
have run it on a 486/33 and got reasonable frame rates in full screen. A P/66
with an average graphics card (CL5434) really pumps in SVGA. I don't believe
you can select the resolution.
On another note, I hope that the full game will have tracks with more
opportunity for jumps etc. (Maybe Fatal Racing is what I want) This game
really hits the spot, my congrats to the programmers on a great job.
