I just did a 30 lap online race last night at Jacksonville (Daytona
clone). Except for the really long yellow flags, the racing was
brilliant. It was just as good as NR2003.
I completely disagree with you

think it's better than N2003 . Physics are much more real , the latest
version SCE.97 is really great. Check it out here.

Once again, the tendency of SCE to commercialism and hence, in the future,
to become retail, somewhat throws me off. Going commercial is fine; but
pretending not to have any such notions and then actually doing it, is
another story.
Every time something new happens with SCE, there's always someone
(oftentimes more than one person) who drops in and plugs the game-- someone
who might be intimately involved. This always leads me to believe that
there's this commercial push going on, of which the public will learn about
soon enough.

I'm beginning to lose some faith in rFactor. There are so many mods and so
many revisions of mods that it's hard to get a handle on things. I think
I'll stay with GTR2 for a bit. I sometimes enjoy a stable, niched product,
rather than one that is spread out and diluted. For F1 cars, rFactor is
king; but for the GTs, I'll move to GTR2.

I have lost no faith with rFactor. There are so many mods and so many
revisions of mods - I could never get bored! It's like getting a
whole new sim every couple of weeks! Admittedly, some of the mods and
tracks are not up to high enough standards, but those quickly get
deleted - so no harm. I love the fact that I can drive such a wide
variety of vehicles - from Karts to Touring to Nascar to F3's to F1's
(in several eras!) to ... And I can race those cars on a seemingly
endless variety of tracks. Yeah, I guess that's just not good enough
for some pepole... But I'll take it!
I have nothing against GTR2, as I believe it is an excellent product.
I just can't seem to justify the purchase when I already have trouble
finding enough time to get the most out of rFactor and GTL. Besides, I
almost feel like I have GTR2 already - being able to drive 6 cars on
many (GTL) tracks with the GTR2 demo. GTR2 is indeed great for GT
racing. But rFactor is (almost) equally great at so much more!...

Anyhow, I don't see your point. rFactor sometimes gets out of hand, with a
track released one minute and some adverti***t add-on within seconds of
the track's release. This creates numerous mismatches, and causes
frustration connecting with an otherwise excellent netcode.

I see you're still at you rhetorical stride.
Nice to know we can always count on seeing the same
old mongrel pitbull snarling away at somebody.

Jeez. I expect one of you to say "Yeah, and it deep too!" before long.
