I don't know what kind of system you're running, but stunts does _well_
on my 386/40.  Stunts, old as it is, is still by far my favourite
driving game.  Excellent playability, graphics and sound (with a
soundcard, that is.)

I've never played Andretti, but if its from Electronic Arts, I'd
probably never buy it...  Nice as the screen shots may look.
