I was just reading that this will include officially the Le mans 24h race which surprised me.
Though "Players will experience intense, incident-packed wheel-to-wheel racing with 20 car grids" so not the entire grid then! Pictures seem to show Corvette and Astons street racing.

I read a preview of this game in a magazine the other day. It did not sound very promising according to the mag

Graphically it's probably the best Racing game out there, but it's an arcade racer much like the recent crap Codemasters has been putting out.

I seen the advert for this on TV the other day and as soon as the cars started power sliding round the race track I knew it was not for me.  Shame really as visually it looked great  Nothing wrong with drifting but are the people who design these games like 12 years old or something.? |

The first Colin McRae Rally game? Also pants. Was only considered "good" due to the lack of other rallygames. |

The first Colin McRae Rally game? CMcRR2 was wayyy better. They also made the original TOCA games on PC which were pretty good. |

I've got ToCA Race Driver 1+3, and also tried the 2nd. It's very much fun and it's still very good. Only problem is that I think it's crap when you try steering with wheel and pedals, so I only use keyboard. It's probably like Battlefield compared to ArmA. It's fun, but not actually a sim.

Well the demo should be out this week, I'll reserve judgement till i see it.
People shouldn't be expecting anything like GTR etc, its going to be a fun arcade'ish game with loosely based phisics.
