     The animation is not fast? Try kicking your afterburners on sometime...
that's if you can pilot it. I think you just pirated the game and have no idea 
how to fine tune your ship. Why don't you set your force field to center your
ship up to 8 or 9 (when racing, hit 'C' 8 or 9 times).

      Give me a break. Learn how to fly the thing then we'll hear the
review.
