Default VRC Anyone?

Hi all,
I am using Virtual RC to keep the skills up right now, and there is a North American championship starting this week for big cash prizes.
Anyone else on it?
Be great to maybe setup a race with some of you !

Default VRC Adapter

Where can I get my hands on one of the USB adapters for this?

The programs is pretty cool however I'm thinking that using my own transmitter may be easier than using the "arrow" keys on the keyboard!!

I got mine from RC MART ( Dinball )
or some stores do carry them.
I highly recommend the adaptor, it makes the game come alive ! oh and it works great on many other racing games too !!

Big T, type in Dinball or RCmart into google, and you'll go to a shop in Japan. From what ive heard, good service, and only reason i say to get them here, is everywhere else is out of stock. VRC seems to be going crazy. Im seeing post after post asking for VRC adapters etc. Oh and you may find me and one more in on the action soon also.... But only realised the other night, my laptop doesnt have the right Vid card.... new PC here i come

Cant wait to race a 1/8th nitro on the Sydney Worlds track from 2001. I have the DVD of the race when Kenji Osaka won.... now thats talent

eVGA GeForce FX 5500
cheap and cheerful - $66 CDN from Tiger Direct . ca
And it works great.

I am in the middle of a North American championship event which is a blast to drive in !
The game really rewards consistent driving, and is easy to get into but tough to master !

Hey Kerry, if you need it I can hook you up with a great computer guy. Didn't charge me anything to build mine when I had him do it. Just charged me for parts.
