Bear_Bottom 516 Posted June 15, 2020 Enjoying this game now. Thanks for the help getting it going. Thought you may like to look at a basic VB program I wrote many years ago based on a Speedway quiz. It's a setup.exe file to download. Runs on my Win10 OK. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nwUmm_dV1tnPT74XOyoCyQoHU5Eogh1y/view?usp=sharing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
martinmauger 584 Posted June 15, 2020 (edited) Kinda releveant, just found the hopefully included. Relates to a speedway league game by ET Games, or ET Software, for the much missed & loved Amiga I believe individ, pairs & 4TT versions were also available. Wonder whether 'Stephen Purchase' is the same Steve Purchase who I think ran Oxford at one time.....

le sorcier 9 Posted January 16, 2021 Amazed at the work put in on this thread. Excellent stuff. I feel I'm almost there now but still having the same problem as SWhitton above? The white screen and every subsequent screen overlaps the previous one rendering it unplayable? Seems like its within touching distance but still agonizingly out of reach!!
