Here's a little secret for all you people with Vette! When you choose the course to race pick the third one (bay bridge to zoo). When the race starts, ignore it and make a U-turn and go back over the starting line. You should be heading east now. Keep driving on this stretch of the bridge. You will eventually reach a point where it looks like the road ends and is surrounded by water. I have found out that this is not the case. Just keep driving on the road the same direction you have been going and when you reach the end, you will be transported onto another road. If you look on your map inside the car, you'll see that you're now in Alemeda on a island. This island is somewhat small but has many streets. If you look long enough you'll find a mall (I'm not sure what it is, but it looks like one!) and this is where the main offices of Sphere Inc., the people who made Vette! for Spectrum Holobyte, are. Also on the island, I have found a street called MacWherehouse, which goes by a building which I assume to be MacWherehouse. Also, there is a street called Macintosh, but I have yet to figure out its importance. Also, while driving near the shoreline of the island, you'll occasionally see buildings on little individual islands offshore, which are inaccessable. I know all this sounds kinda wierd, but it's all there. I was sure surprised the first time I found it. If anyone finds anything else interesting in Vette! or has trouble finding what I have desribed about, let me know by e-mail
