Vice City Races

[Jonne]

I seem to have a little problem. I can't play the races at the used car shop. I bought it, completed the list of cars i needed, finished almost all other things in the game, but I can't start the races. If i walk into the pink circle, i get the race selection menu, i can select a track, but i can't start one. If i press 'tab' nothing happens, and the only way to get away is pressing 'return', which doesn't start the race either.
I even tried changing the keys, but that didn't work . Does anybody else have the same problem? Is there something i overlooked?
tnx

I take it you have enough money to enter the race you choose. I can't think of anything else.

Try the 'Shift' key, or whatever button you use to Sprint.
