What should I buy then if I want to also compete in the RACE series on here? This or the 'old' RACE 07 game?

Colin

If you're thinking of getting something other than GTR2, I'd go with Rfactor. Maybe iRacing.....if you can afford to be ripped off. Race 07 had good WTCC's but precious little else.

Here is an onboard video of a Saleen at Nurby. Looks awefull and on rails (oh, and the driver sucks Tongue)

That is almost definitely the AI driving. The utter utter smoothness of steering is almost certainly not human, so that'll probably explain the on-rails look. You also don't know, if that is a human driver, what aids are turned on, they might have all of them turned on. Smiley

I don't think screenshots or videos will ever draw you any conclusions on anything other than graphics and maybe sound.

Look on the bright side - they wont charge you a year's subscription and they will let you race all the cars on all the tracks a)without "training" and b)without paying any extra cash.

The annoying thing with GTR Evolution is there is a chance that my name is in it as one of the drivers. Simbin asked the GB-GTL league for the name of some of its drivers so they can put some real life names in it and my name was put forward. On that basis, I hope its a great game and worth getting but to be honest, I don't play Race 07 so I would probably not play GTR Evolution.

If you reduced the camera movement in gtr2 it wouldn't look to different. The only noticeable thing i didnt like was the gear change animation which looks rubbish.

I didn't like the graphics at all. The colours are very plain and don't look too sharp. Also the track looked very boring with lack of detail, and the car's interiour with the hands was horrible.

Nordschleife also doesn't look that good, so I really don't see any reason why to get this crap. It basically offers what GTR2 already offers, but GTR2 does it with a whole lot better physics and graphics.

All that glitters is not gold!!!...as the old saying goes..

It looks like the car is stood still and the road is moving in front of it....Bizare!!

I have spoken to one Dutch beta tester and he even says the physics will be better than GTR2. He was my teammate at Benelux Endurance Series and one SSCA race. So I know he is for real and he is bloody quick (he won last SSCA race), so there is actualle a sparkle of hope for this title Tongue.

As the current graphics state, it might be better to port the Evolution cars to GTR2 incl. Nurby  Shocked

Here is a preview. Apparantly, this game will be harder than GTR2, which sounds good to me, as GTR2 was sometimes a bit too forgiving.:

Lol, that might be because you haven't had the chance to try iRacing yet! It's anything but boring driving the Skip Barber around Roll Eyes

Has anyone tried the Race minis since last patch? Might just be me (not unusual for me to be way off the mark Wink) but its improved beyond all recognition. It feels weighty and connected to the road which it certainly wasn't before.

Wasn't that bothered about this add on but after a mini race tonight I'm midly excited Smiley That review is interesting as well, a Koenizeseg Swedish super car  Shocked
