This thread is going from "Vogons Ranks" to "PCL monetization".

Rally Masters: Michelin Race Of Champions (updated to v3.2.) Just won´t run on Windows 10/11 without its corresponding CD/ISO . Not even under Win 98/ME compatibility with administrative privileges enabled. #PleaseHelp Probably the game needs a no-CD patch. Not all that old, but I had issues with …
