Played an extremely fun motorcycle racing game on my friend's PC this weekend. Is anything available on the Mac side?

Sorry dude, I cant think of any mac games in that genre - and im pretty confident I know of every game thats out for mac (its not hard there arent THAT many).

There may be some older bike games, but in terms of recent stuff, the closest you will get is 4x4 evolution 2. Otherwise there are some older games like driver, and cro mag rally (driver isnt bad).

4x4 evo 2 is a good one, but its off road 4x4 racing, a far cry from motorcycle. Still, racing is racing...

Theres no reason why such games couldnt be ported to mac, except that there isnt a lot of demand for them. If you want to play motorcycle racing, buy a console like ps2...

Dirt Bike is the only one. Racing games are very rare on the mac.

There is a downloadable version of motorcross that has low system requirements, so I thought I'd give VirtualPC a try. Anyone know how to get virtual PC to use my Quicksilvers' Nvidia accelerator card? Without 3d acceleration I can't even get motorcross to start up.
