Race Track v1.0 (RACETRK.EXE) is a Windows shareware version
of the classic Swiss racing simulation game.   Not an arcade 
game, but just as exciting -- it requires thinking rather than
reflexes.  A good example of a game based on simple rules
that models the real world with amazing accuracy.  Design
and build your own tracks and share them with a friend.
Race against a friend or the 'ghost' of the track champion.
Challenging but fun, easy to learn and play, great
graphics, sound effects, and MIDI background music!

RACETRK.ZIP should yield the following program files when un-zipped:

	RACETRK.EXE  --  The Race Track executable
	RACETRK.HLP  --  The Race Track Help File
	README.TXT   --  This 'read-me' file
        RACETRK.MID  --  The racing background MIDI music
	RTWIN.MID    --  The winners 'fanfare' MIDI music
        RTCRASH.WAV  --  The crash sound WAV file
	RTSIREN.WAV  --  The WAV file of an ambulance siren

+ three example tracks:
 
        RTGARD.TRK   --  Martin Gardners's original race track
        RTMAZE.TRK   --  a maze-like track
	RTTOUGH.TRK  --  a challenging race track

Race Track is written in Visual Basic 3.0.   As such it
requires that VBRUN300.DLL exists in your Windows System directory.	

I have a 'slick' install program that takes care of everything having
to do with installation, but for file exchanges across BBSs 
it takes up too much room -- adding almost 300K to the files.  
So . . . to install Race Track, please do the following:

1. Check that VBRUN300.DLL is in your Windows System directory.  If not,
   please download a copy ( there should be a copy on the BBS from which
   you downloaded RACETRK.ZIP)

2. Create a directory RACETRK

3. Copy all the files 'unzipped' from RACETRK.ZIP 
   to this new RACETRK directory.

4. Create a program manager icon for RACETRK.EXE by adding it as a file
   in your GAMES program manager group.

That's it.

Thanks for using Race Track.  I hope its challenging, fun, and 
educational at the same time!
