Just a quick question (FWD, you might know this... ). Downloaded and played the rFactor demo, to be honest i'm not overly impressed but i'd like to get back into online racing at some point and i'm told the add-ons are good.

Got a question about registering however. I use 2 computers; 1 when i'm at university which then stays boxed up when i use a second computer at home on holiday. If i buy the game can the key be used to register both copies, baring in mind i will be the sole user and as such they couldn't be used at the same time? If not then i'm not really willing to shell out £30 on a game i can only use half a year

Cheers,
Rob.

Yes you can have it on two computers, there is some info here - http://forum.rscnet.org/showthread.ph

Not sure what cars you get on the demo (the F1 2006 Sauber BMW is very good), but they are only a taster and you get a lot more cars with a purchased copy before you even start to add on others

the 1979 F1 cars are awesome. they are like GPL on speed. I thinK I might make a video of them to persuade errant ex GPLers (cough diver cough!) that they are worth getting rfactor for

(i'm not giving up my high pressure sales techniques until they work)

Some 1979 mod videos here - www.youtube.com/results?search_query=rfactor+79&search=Search

And loads of general ones (and 79mod vids) here - http://forum.rscnet.org/showthread.ph

Should be more than enough

So you get a certain amount of activations, before you have to call them and ask for some more... (which by the sounds of it, they never send...) Anyone know how many!?

Thanks for swift replies though lads, knew i could count on you FWD

You can activate it 5 times before you need to phone or email TryMedia..

As for them not replying.. as far as I've seen they are OK in giving out extra activation codes..

Exactly, just ignore the moaners on RSC most of them fcuk things up all by themselves and blame everyone else but themselves or just moan for the sake of it because no one else has yet (you get trolls everywhere)
