Quote from Scawen :

If you haven't already unlocked the F1 version, then you will need to use an unlock. That only takes a few seconds though - it's no big deal. Every month we increase your number of unlocks available, up to a maximum of two. So by using an unlock, you lose... absolutely nothing!

Cool... thanks for the help. And actually I have never raced online yet... I'm still on dial-up (it's not even offered in my rural area), so that doesn't weigh on my decision. I'll do it up and probably get back into it more than my wife and kids would like

Again, I appreciate the help, and you've built one helluva game!

This may be a stoopid question, but if I install this patch will I have to re-register the game and use up one of my licenses? I'm a casual gamer at best... I can probably live without the patch. I would, however, like to be able to drive the F1 car during the occasions I play.

I didn't do a thorough search on the subject... I was just kind of hoping someone would be able to provide a quick answer.

Thanks
