N2/TPTCC was crude but fun. Dodgy, twitchy cars. N3/TPTCC seems a
little unsupported. And, the cars have a sort of "on rails" feeling.
Graphics are still not up to the standards of the last rally sim I
bought. It may be a good after work un-winder but one day is a little
soon to tell.

I have a copy of SCGT and a question. Is it really worth the effort of
all the multiple downloads and patches to set this up to run what look
like very tasty cars? I'd like a fairly good car model and looking at
some of the names associated with the SCGT add ons I know that there
must be something good about it.

I'm former real world SCCA, Trans-Am and FIA Appendix J kind of guy
who knows that his chances of driving a sim Lotus XI (beautiful car,
Irish pony cart suspension) with authentic Coventry Climax sounds are
less than slim and below none. Should I just bag the whole thing and
join the faithful at the Little Chapel of the Brothers waiting in
front of the altar for the vapor to turn to  flesh?

And then there's this little thing called ONLINE RACING, nuff said :-)

Last season I got to race my simulated Holden Commodore against some of
the nicest sim racers there is, I would have been back for this season
if I could, not to mention that we also have access to some very nice
tracks thx to the GPL community and David Noonan's converter

Beers and cheers

My big update should be done soon with AI, paintable cars, all the cars on
the entry list, etc.

Thanks,

Thanks for the pointer. This option certainly looks like it has some
potential.
