Damn, all of that just to find out my system does not meet minimum requirements! Looks like it would be so much too!

Sorry to hear that Jason!

A couple of things.

To play the Midgets you must have a full paid version of rFactor,
1. To play rFactor you must download and install the game from www.rFactor.net .(you maybe able to purchase rFactor on disk at a retail shop but I am not sure from where in the U.S you could get it. (check your computer meets the minimum requirements to play here:

2. Install it to your PC,
3. Then using pay pal, buy the "unlock coupon" ($39.99 USD) from www.rFactor.net . The unlock coupon opens up the ability to add cars and tracks into the game ,such as the midget car, and some dirt oval short tracks. Also without the full paid version you cannot race online against others.
4. Then goto www.kiwidirt.com , register, and download the Midget Mod (Modification to rFactor) and some dirt tracks and install them into your rFactor game folder (located in your program files).
5. To control the cars the keyboard wont really do, you will need a steering wheel and pedals or a joystick or gamepad (similar to a playstation or xbox) at a minimum.

This is more of a simulation than a arcade type game, meaning it is not the sort of game that you can just pick up and start driving and instantly be Tony Stewart, it takes some getting used to. It does not come in a home gaming console (xbox/Playstatio) form, its PC only.
