Look forward to it.

That's a good thing, but nothing out of the ordinary for anything that calls
itself a sim nowadays.  What happens at one corner affects all the others
and vice versa.

GPL cars are on rails, eh?  Now that's not something you hear a lot of...
;-)  What you mention does suggest a good tire model, though.  You can
easily feel camber pull and surface changes in RBR, for instance.  And
getting the tire model right is the big deal with a sim.  Screw that up and
it doesn't matter what you do with the rest of it; it'll still feel like
junk.

See above bit about screwing up the tire model.  The F1C engine has issues
with low speed grip, even in it's latest GTR iteration.  Not an easy thing
to get right, I gather.

spin...

Only if Higgins wasn't watching... ;-)

Well, he already admitted crashing more times than he could imagine while
driving through only 4 corners, so obviously our man has some issues.

Cut him some slack... ;-)

Oh no ! You scared them away ! Now the ultimate sim is gone. Forever.

Undoubtly these beings must have been aliens coding the ultimate sim for
a world on the other side of the galaxy. They had set their office in
Great Britain as it is generally accepted to be the holy place of
motorsports across the universe but you blew their cover off (although
the gold scooby was admittedly a pretty dumb move from their part) !

Oh, wait. Since they knew about the Tyrell, they can't be coming from
farther away than 29 light-years. Quick, let's re-task Hubble.
