WHAT???? The simulation aspect of these cars is excellent!!! You gotta
understand one thing...unlike Nascar or Indycar or F1GP, you can't take your
Lambo or your Porsche and adjust camber, toe,tire pressure, wing angle or any
of those items which are typical of pure-race-bred-only-non-road-legal vehicle
simulators. What other non-recognised-racing-competition games (nfs,
screamer...) allow you to tach out the R's then dump the clutch right out of
the hole, bring the car sideways on the green and try to steer out of it all
the while laying down some REALLY THICK *** on the asphalt.
Each of these cars has a personality of thier own and they definitely show you
what it is after driving one to the envelope several times.
