    Want a game like grandturismo?
    Want a game where you can paint a swastika on your car?
    Want to add bits and pieces too it, race in the twisties and do incredible junk?


    Look no further friends,

    I've been on a mission to find something which isn't awful to play. I've inflicted Need for speed:eek:nline onto myself, the tedium of Simraceway (Its great, but you honestly need a wheel). And I want some things and doodads to attach to my car.

    Yes it does have some cars available for Normal money, but it is actually quite a good game.

    Intresting. I've been looking for a new racing game ever since Project Torque IP blocked everyone outside america. Are there many players?

    It looks interesting, I've just done the tutorial races, but it seems like a decent distraction so far.

    The biggest issue atm is that the site is so slow!

    EDIT: It appears its only really slow in Chrome.

    I was in the beta for this. It's alright - not a sim, but it looks pretty and plays fairly well.

    RaceRoom Online is also F2P (although really not much content for free). Worth a look.

    I tried it out a while ago and to me it felt pretty poor. The brakes felt terrible, and you couldn't turn off the ABS, there was no feel to the brakes either and now real sound so you couldn't properly tell how hard you were braking.

    Might try it again at a later point.
