    But you get the end game for free, and there is a possibility of making profit.

    Can't believe they're expecting anyone to buy the senior manager tool pack at 25k euros.

    You could buy a real car for that!

    Might buy the bottom or next one up at some point when I've got money to spend.


    *edit*

    After watching the videos, looks to me like they're using Shift 2 as the basis.

    I think the idea with that pack is you get a cut of the profits when the game is released so could make more than you spend.

    Yeah not bad at all, but just like rFactor we will need to get some arm animations for each of the cars ;)

    Bought Junior and if I am really impressed over the next few weeks I will upgrade.

    If you're using a wheel in rfactor you can turn the ingame wheel/arms off, every racing game should have that option imo!

    Yeah that's a nice feature, playing in a frame and seat with a 90" projector I will push the cockpit camera forward so that it is the real view, then I can use my assigned keys to look down at the wheel when need be, but I can have all the dash indicators mounted on my wheel anyway. Just nice to have the option, especially for watching replays.

    I thought this pic from the forum looked awesome.

    Sorry for double but....GUISE, this is amazing stuff. Considering it is pre-alpha this is utterly astounding. Go and give them your beer tokens and thank me later
