QUOTE (PF Flyer @ Mar 9 2005, 01:11 PM) I like the Nurenburg Ring in an M5 Nurburgring is awesome. I just took the 725hp M5 there last night. In the latest BMW Roundel magazine, they are offering a driving school there in the summer. |

I've got the x-box. Could not help but check on this thread though. I was in to the PS2 once befroe it crapped out. Did like GT3 from what i have seen of GT4 the graphics and all seem to be the same as 3. That to me is the biggest downfall,pretty flashy. Still want to try it though (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) I used to really get into that.
For the Xbox I think I read someone liked the TOCA racer PS2. For the X-box platform it is 'Pro Race driver' That one is pretty good for a sim on the Xbox. Real race series and cars are used. They have sears point (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) No laguna (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Real race atmosphere. The game had alot of influence from real road race drivers to get the dynamics right. As far driving aides hell yeah those get turned off immediately. Always in the car 1st person and manual trans is the only way. I cant stand watching the car drive... like a RC. Stupid why bother.

If you aren't in the car, you see things you shouldn't be and I don't feel like I'm in the car reacting to the tail sliding/etc. |

QUOTE (cdb95z28 @ Mar 9 2005, 08:41 PM) Dirt to Daytona is not an EA Sports game. It is Infogrames/ Monster games for PS2. This game blows EA Sports NASCAR away. With D to D, you need to know something about racecar physics. Yea I misunderstood, I just looked at 'NASCAR' and assumed that was the EA sport version, woops! Nascar's gem was never the 'physics' which was absolutely binary. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Speaking of physics, the game that really rocked was SCGT (Sport Car GT) for Win98. With a Logitech wired force-feedback wheel and pedals, quick analog reactions paid off. Don't know if D to D has something like that for PS or PS2. In SCGT you can tune for short tracks like Limerock or long tracks like Road Atlanta, not fantasy courses and handling settings. [/tangent] |

I tried a steerting wheel and pedals a few years ago and hated it. Of course no feel, feedback. Bat like I said that was probably about 7,8,9 years ago. I`m under the assumption that they are MUCH better now.
Tuning for D to D works that way too. Heck, if you want to take a setup from Darlington to Bristol (not that you`d want to (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) ) you can. It lets you do what ever you want.

My bro-in-law uses the "above and behind the car" " view. I always tell him "don`t look at your car!" BTW,Laguna Seca Rocks :drive: |

Since there are a few here who have it, I thought of something fun. (It's the spirit of US)
We should all decide on a car, and a track or two or three, and report back our times...... Cars would have to be #1 Cool #2 Readily available. I have a GS Vette, and a Z28 (LT1) but both of those were purchased in the used lot, and aren't always there. |
