PRO RACE DRIVER – UNOFFICIAL “DEMO” CODE BEING CIRCULATED ONLINE

New York, NY – May 2, 2002 - The “demo” that is being circulated online for Codemasters’ Pro Race Driver* is unofficial code.  The early demo code produced several months ago for U.S. long-lead magazine usage was not intended for online distribution.

The code is not representative of the current status of the game, nor should be taken as an example of the finished title, which will be released in late summer. It has only experimental car physics, basic AI, the car damage is an early test model and it will not run on a wide range of machines, because it is not optimized code.

Codemasters advises all gamers to await the true playable demo. Due this summer for PC, the official demo will enable players to experience the game’s dramatic narrative and superlative racing action in a demo that promises to be an excellent sampler-game complete with a cliff hanger ending.
