Hardware limitations make F12K out of the question, but I would appreciate
any and all opinions.
I also play a lot of N3 and ICR2.
Thanks

What are your hardware limitations???

Well, F12K would have been the obvious choice since it is made by the same
folk that brought us SCGT. But you mentioned the hardware issue. If you
primarily do hot-lapping, I'd still recommend F12K. The real prob with the
graphics in F12K is with mirrors on (anytime) and at the start (even no
mirrors). In the latter, it is similar to the slowness of SCGT, but maybe a
factor of 1.5x worse. Just writing this in case you want to reconsider.
Otherwise, you can try the demo of F1 World Grand Prix. I haven't warmed to
it.
That leaves Monaco Grand Prix Racing Sim 2 (sequel to F1 Racing Sim). If
you can still find it. It has a pretty different driving feel to most. The
car is very tricky in accel and braking when you turn the respective aids off.
The graphics are very bright/colorful. It looks good, but maybe just too
"good". Since I got F12K, I've put it away. Actually, I had already tired of
it.
Or, you can either find an old copy of (World Circuit) Grand Prix 2, but it
is dated graphically (no hardware 3D support). Or wait for the sequel Grand
Prix 3, due out July 28 in Europe, August in US.
Oh, I assumed you meant modern F1. Grand Prix Legends simply can't be beat if
you are happy with 1967 vintage F1 cars (and are willing to devote weeks to
learning how to drive again).
My order of preference would be:
F12K, warts and all.
Wait for GP3 and see what the hardware req's are.
Find a copy of MGPRS2 (or buy mine :-)).
