GTR revisited

Wow! I like the damage modelling. I've seen so many race games in which damage doesn't seem to exist; or at least it's not visible.

I agree, but it could be better. Some times it looks just amazing, whilst other times it looks daft.

To me damage is an important part of any racing simulator, since its - yes - a simulator.

I always play with 200% damage, because I like the fact that if I screw up, the race is over. A gentle nudge could give me a flat, etc, etc. (This is "fun" in heavy rain!

)

But try it out, sailor steve! Its a great game!

HOLY ....! The Nordschleife is now released for GTR 2 by some very talented modders.

Vid where I eventually die horribly:

I love seeing the Nurburgring modelled! It looks great! I only wish it had been a long shot instead of a close-up when you went through the Karusel. And the Schwalbenschwantz.

I still have my copy of Grand Prix 2 (and the original Grand Prix, but it's pretty bad) and I love those tracks. Most newer GP sims are only for consoles, and I can't afford to buy one right now.

Great stuff.

Yes, but you are not missing out, sailorsteve. The last good F1 game was released in 2001, I think. (F1 Challenge 99-02) ALL the GP titles to consoles suck hard.

A nice race at Monza:
