1.  How open are the "open" tracks?  (I loved exploring in TD3.)  Or is
their idea of open just fences + trees surrounding the road instead of
walls?

2.  I hear there is traffic (bi-directional?) and police cars.  Are
there, and how easy/hard is it to elude the police?

3.  Is there plenty to keep it involving, or is this one of those "cute
for 2 days then shelve it" games?

Since I'm thinking of purchasing it, any other comments/differences
between it and the demo are welcome.

As for your questions,
2.  Yes, there is traffic and it is bi-directional.  The cops are easy to
outrun, as long as you don't crash.

3.  Couldn't say; if I'm lucky, I'll play it twice a year.
