Stick to Car & Driver if you just want to go for a drive.  IndyCar is for
racing.  There are 16 tracks, paintstakingly models after the actual venues
inthe PPG IndyCar World Series.

Too numerous to mention.

If you don't want to finish the race, just exit the game... and perhaps load
Car & Driver!  :)

Again, 16 tracks.

Sound an dgraphics are great!  But it's not a visual feast, it's a racing sim.

Yeah, get there first, or don't get there first.  It's not an arcade game.  
You've got to setup your own car if you want to have the best car.  It's not
as much a game as it is a simulation.

Hope that touches upon the subject enough.  Most of us REALLY had no idea how
great it was until we got it.

Would someone please tell me what is so great about ICR.
I have had for several years Car & Driver, and I still love the game.
It has a wide variety of tracks, and there are many sights to see, if you just want to go for a drive.
Someone expain to me ICR, and what makes it so encaptivating.
If you don't want to race to the finish, can you go elsewhere?
Is there a variety of tracks?
Is there something else that makes it good, maybe the graphics or the sound?
Do you have lots of options in getting to the finish line?
If anyone has answers, please post them; I would be most appriciative.
