Introduction

Welcome
Welcome to the Quake III Rally! It's finally here! A game! With maps! And cars!

We know how long you've been waiting for this, so we're happy to say it's ready for public consumption. There's lots of cars, there's lots of maps, there's lots of game modes - and yes, you can play it online.

If this is your first outing with Quake III Rally, then welcome! We hope you enjoy our little mod.

If you've played Q3R before then welcome back. You're especially welcome if you trying this for a second time to see if the physics are improved. Hopefully you'll find the latest updates make a real difference to your play experience.
