Epitome of long-term motivation!

Did the game itself since release - and since then it has never left my hard drive.
First let me say that some of the negative statements of other writers here are bullshit (especially by Mr Schröder !!!!).
Such things can only tell someone who has tested maybe 10 minutes - and was terribly disappointed by the first negative experiences of the realistic driving behavior. However, the learning curve is very high - and no one will expect from a game like this, try to build best times after a few minutes.
What graphics and sound ... As both factors are high in a very level - and even demand more current computer accordingly when they are highly regulated maximum. Former graphic slowdowns in certain areas of certain routes have been fixed in the first patch.

In any case, the drivability of the car 1A - provided you "transferred to a ride on the PC" can tell at all.
I myself am quite a motorsport fan - and had several opportunities Nürburgring and our Austria to drive ring, in this respect may I emphasize the comparison with GTR2 Feeling together with the virtual routes only positive.

The setup of the car are highly sensitive - and therefore effective, or negative, if you just messed up.
Alternatively, however, was an honorable mention much so that a ready made (and partly also rated) setups are drawn in a matter of seconds from the network as soon as you have opened up an account (free and easy unproblematic).

Hand in hand with the many options, the different cars, setups and and and - wait the coolest competitions around the PC racing game history. Anyone who has ever recorded - and then about a 30 minute race in Monza or completed elsewhere will be delighted - and definitely get up drenched in sweat from the chair.

Finally, the REALLY negative aspects:
Already mentioned in detail: The problematic implementation of the wet race and related physics. Fierce difficult to impassable triffts really - similarly frustrating night race and are often quickly zerschrottete headlights.
However, the weather can indeed adjust options - and then the wet race can simply eliminate!

The AI ​​drivers are in turn a different caliber.
Most of them are ok - though the bump increase already at 100% KI starch into common, and you find yourself regularly during curse.
Especially when braking in long corners, push the back like a little bit of - irrespective of racing line or speed ;-)

However, both are multiple shortcomings bearable on the basis of perfect overall package - and as a conclusion one can only say:
The best still racing game - or race simulation.
