This is another part of the unusual approach the devs have taken with this game. Since it has been available in beta form since august 2002, there are thousands of beta-testers. We submit bugs we find to the official forum, and you know what? They get fixed in the next patch!
You download a 140 mb.zip file. Just unzip it to your games folder and its installed.
This install will then act as a demo, limited to 3 cars and 2 reversible tracks, until you buy the game an unlock the rest.
You can easily take a copy of you install folder for LFS. Every time you re-install Windows, just copy the files back in. As there is no registry keys associated with the game.
The only way you'd have to enter a key again is if you do hardware changes.
