I just downloaded the demo from avault and played it for close to 3 hours last night. I havent even touched any other sims since I installed it. I love how you can just dive the car into the turn and with a little throttle modulation and alot of counter steering keep it on a line. With my limited real dirt track racing experiance id have to say it really does FEEL like dirt. I cant really say if it feels like a praticular car because my racing was in midgets and mini-sprints....but it feels like how dirt should feel. And with the adjustable dirt condiditons it only adds to this. Tacky track is good for racing, dry hard track produces fast laptimes, wet track is slippery...its like it should be. I cant wait for the full version to come out. Chris

I just wish they had those funny cars with the huge rear aerofoil. They're the cars I'm used to seeing dirt racing. They quite often have US vs Aus championships. Bazza

I think you're talking about the winged sprints (world of outlaws series in the US). The grapevine tells me to expect these cars in the next version of DTR, or an add-on pack. They require a little more physics modelling. Marko;
Excellent! I wonder if Ratbag would be interested in doing a "retro" with the sprintcars (or midgets) of the 1960s, prior to cages and wings being used? That's how I remember speedway here in Oz......demolition-derby and sprint-cars! -- Regards, Bruce Kennewell, Canberra, Australia. --------------------------- > > I just wish they had those funny cars with the huge rear aerofoil. > > They're the cars I'm used to seeing dirt racing.
