There are so many racing simulator games available, which to choose?
Which one is the best? When I say 'the best', I am referring to the most
realistic physics and *hopefully* the best graphics. A great physics engine
does good if you can't see the road, lol
I have some GP, Nascar and CART games, this is what I'm interested in and
ALM (if they even make such an animal).
I have the rest, I want the best.
I would appreciate any feedback.
Thank you, Michael
If you like F1, GP3 is the best choice.

GPL
has long been touted as having the most realistic physics and with the 3rd
party add-ons it probably rates up there with the best graphics.
Unfortunately it can be extremely hard to find in stores now.

It's the closest thing
you can get to real motor-sport on your PC. I think it's fair to say it's
as challenging as racing a real car. The graphics and sound are also very
good.
If you like bikes, have a look at GP 500 and Superbike 2000 (or 2001).
Titles to look for in the future would be World Sports Cars and Nascar 4,
both due Q1 next year.

So pick up GP3 by microprose, its got great graphics(rain too), and with the
new patch the physics are excellent. Awesome 3rd party support as well,
plenty of tracks, cars, carsets, setups, extra graphics, utilities, etc.
You'll need at least a PII 400 and a good graphics card to be able to enjoy
this one. If your into neckcar, wait a few months for nascar4 from papyrus
and

In my books, a Lotus 49 is a tin can with no downforce. Or maybe an
aluminum beer can. However, I still love driving it.

The only answer to that is Grand Prix Legends, by Sierra/Papyrus. Everybody
saying otherwise within your above condition is just saying rubbish
statements.

Tough call between GP3 and GPL. Depends on if you're looking for historic
F1 or modern F1. I'd give the edge to GP3 slightly.

Easy.
Modern F1 - GP3 (some may say F1 2000, but I'd disagree)
Historical F1 - GPL

Bollocks. Please RE-READ the original post.
"When I say 'the best', I am referring to the most realistic physics"
His only choice is GPL.

Yo
The only answer is GPL, GP3 sucks soooo badly and to think I actually bought
that sh*te.
Realistic physics and the best graphics, GPL. (GP3 slow framerates even with
P800 and Voodoo 5!!)
Best multiplayer action, GPL (Cos GP3 cant hack it on line)
That's what was asked and there's the answer, GP3 is sh*te. GP2 on the
other hand was great at the time it came out and I played that right up to
the launch of GP3. Now I play neither, you want realism, GPL, GP3 is not a
simulation it's GP2 with prettier pictures and still runs like a three
legged dog!
Phew
Bye bye
