Test Drive ]I[ Cheat
Written by JT, NYC '90

   The Test Drive ]I[ Cheat is very easy to install.  Just run TD3CHEAT.
You will now have an infinite number of cars.  To uninstall the cheat
and bring it back to Jenetic Bytemare's original release, type TD3UNCHT.

   The current status of the bbs world is the pits.  All of the cracking
groups are racing to get the "eLyTe, K-Rad Warez" out first.  That in
itself is okay.  But they are all lacking in quality, professionalism,
and maturity.  The ragging is just intollerable.  If groups would just
release the games and be professional about it, things would be much
better.  There should be no releasing of uncracked games so as to get it
out first with the intention of writing a patch later.  It is this BS
in the BBS world that has caused me to lose interest.  I read a little
something in the read.me file in Monkey1.zip by North Wind which really
impressed me.  When I read it, I called him up to congradulate him on
cracking the game and writing such a great text file.  I'd like to show
you a small cliping of his file...

Greetings go out to:  PTL, FiRM, and PSI.  (Three groups who have always
clung to there dignity and honor.)  Jenetic Bytemare (for cracking Test
Drive ]I[).  North Wind (for writing that great text file.)  Mad
Scientist (where are my disks?).  The Fang (give my howdy-ho's to the
"Park People.)  Elerond Halfelven (where are my tapes?  BTW, I've found
a great source of bootlegs around here...) Realm Keeper (give me a call
sometime)  Darby and Magic (keepup the good work.  The board has
promise.)
