I'll get mine via Gogamer. Can't find the game at any stores in my area--

I like Steam as a distribution method, but it does make it too easy to
buy things on the spur of the moment and then regret it later! :-)

Race07 is a big improvement over 06. Improved physics, sound, FFB and
the graphics engine tweaked a bit. Some of the add on series seem a bit
as if they felt they had to add new content to justify the upgrade - and
they are probably right - there will be people that will complain if it
is perceived as an upgrade.
I believe Race07 will prove to be the best modern day saloon car sim
available. Not too sure how the open wheelers will stack up at this
stage - not tried them enough, but they don't have quite the initial
quality of the touring cars on first impression.
It is moddable too - I have already added Donington available from nogrip!
Power & Glory for GTR2 is the best for historic saloons IMHO.

I may stick with the Maserati in GTR2 for a while longer. I love the
sound that car makes. It's almost as pretty as the original GPL Ferrari.
:-)
Thanks for your thoughts on Race07 so far though.

I have nothing to do with shopto.net just a happy customer.
