Aussy V8 sim.

And from what they have shown on the TV here, the tracks will make F1 2002's
look 100% accurate...

Oh dear...I'm guessing it won't try to compete on physics either?
Codemasters answer to Gran Turismo?

Nigel, guessing from your email address, your in NZ. Not sure if you have
Electronics Boutique chain in NZ, but if you bought it there they have a 7
day return policy (well at least in Aust anyway)...

I returned V8 Challenge after 1 day. It wasnt worth wasting any more of my
time, so I swapped it over for a pre-order on F12002 which I now have and
couldnt be happier. V8 Challenge was eagerly anticipated, yet delivered
little.

Like others I'm hoping Codemasters do a better job with the V8's.

Matt.

Ok, I have read a lot of ***ing about V8 Challenge. I have it and thought
it was OK. I only drive the Bathurst track. Apart from the sound being a bit
erratic at times I don't really have a problem. Are you talking about the
cars handling? I thought it is just me not being very good.
