Nice! A comfortable sim/game that rides a balance between arcade and
sim. Closest to probably, Viper. Good graphics, car handling, opponent
ai and race feel. The most ***in part is driving in a pack at night!
very cool brake light effects, looks awesome in a replay. I like this a
lot although there are some things I would like added. Drove all three
cars and after a few hours managed a 45.19 in the panoz. Rippin fun.

Yes, I agree.. It's a LOT of fun, especially with the split-axis fix.
I was able to pip John's time of 45.19 by a few tenths to 44.89.

The only sim's I've bought in the last 3 years are GP2, GPL and Powerslide
(and I've tried all the others). I'm buying SCGT too as soon as it comes
out.

Good work Image Space!!

44.11 here post-Demo Update 1.1 from GT1

God bless,

Congrats!

How do you find the demo update v1.1 affects handling? Do you feel it makes
the cars handle easier or more difficult, but faster?

Peace and love,

I dropped my time to a 43.60 now. The car handles slightly worse and you gotta
brake more and/or earlier for some of the turns. Any good sim-driver should
have absolutely no problem adjusting.

God bless,

Am I the only one that finds PowerSlide impossible to play with
Force-Feedback?

Well, I guess that rules me out!
