Ok, right, for myself I brought up MIDI as a format type only. For a player that could play music that one could change on the fly was the idea I was looking for. Besides have a certain type of format then droping ones own tunes the player director could case problem. I do like the idea of a player during the times when I may not be in the hunt but just driving to gain my points at the end of the race. Then it would sound like I was on a sunday afternoon drive.
Anybody knows of a good Wheel and padels. I am looking one that will vibrate and and have a cup holder. Smiles. If I can't drink andrace there be no pont.
