Can anyone help me and my three year old? Need a copy of the full version of Tank Racer. Have the demo already. It's no longer available from Grolier. Other places no longer stocking. Anyone have a version or know where to get one? We desperately want the red tank! I desperately need the peace!
Thanks!!

Jammer Chimera! Eigenlijk ben ik engelse, maar ik woon hier al 13 jaar. Het bevalt me geweldig hier in NL, vluchte uit Engeland wegens Mw. Thatcher! Beste beslissing van mijn leven tot nu toe!

OK OK Thatcher is lelijk maar vluchten? Ik wist niet dat t zo erg was:D. Maar wel cool dat je NL praat....ben je trouwens van plan lang hier te blijven? Want dit is echt wel een coole site!! Zitten wel een paar mongolen bij maar ja dat heb je overal nietwaar? IIG veel plezier!


PS: NL is wel een chill landje he?;)

Hi Rachelh -- I was in the same situation. I found a copy a couple of weeks ago from a place called DMParts (www.dmparts.com). I don't think they list the game on their website, but they're selling them through Ebay for US$4.99 ("buy now" price). Go to Ebay and search for "tank racer game". Good luck.

Hi Pogz,

Thanks for your reply ... I managed to get a copy of a copy from someone.... but I now have another problem ...
I cannot access any other racing tracks except the village! Can see them! Just can't select them. Can change tanks though. Have searched sites for cheats or suggestions and can only find a download for a Hex editor. Had my computer downloading for 24 hours and the 6KB still wasn't in.

Does your copy from Ebay work OK? If it does I'll buy a legal copy!!!

Look forward to your reply..
Rachel

Sites nowadays are dropping like flies, damn the industry and their dirty games of spreading viruses and causing havoc in the background for the warez(broke) users.

Yea that's my new thing, it's not that warez users don't support the software industry, it's just that they are broke... yea broke:D

Stop the Dutch, before they take over! :)

Ek kan nie Nederlands praat nie maar Afrikaans - dit is naby aan dieselfde, ja?

Rachelh -- I think you have to unlock the other levels by placing sufficiently high (ie, 1st, 2nd or 3rd) on preceeding levels, then once they're unlocked you can choose any of them. Not entirely sure since I just installed it yesterday (my son's birthday) and we're still figuring it out, too, but I think that's how it works. By the way, it looks like it's got some pretty fun multiplayer levels, if you have a home network (I doubt you'll find any internet servers doing Tank Racer!). There are also some "goodies" you can unlock as you progress (under "options"), but I have NO idea what that is.

Hi Pogz!
Thanks ... I'm useless at getting round at a reasonable speed - will have to try some other need for speed players nearer home to help me unlock the routes. My son is getting much better than me, but often get's side tracked mowing down the cows or picking up the bonus boxes. His sound effects are better than the soundtrack!
Have fun and I'll let you know if I unlock the goodies box.

I'm sure your son will get them unlocked soon enough. Do let me know if you get into the goodies before we do.

Have fun!
