I have it too, and I agree that it is very nice.
Graphically it looks quite stunning (with full draw distance, textures and some AA/AF applied), and the framerate is excellent too.
It is very buggy though, and I haven't managed to do anything online yet.
I went back to rFactor afterwards and I couldn't drive properly. Oh dear.

Yes it is nice eye candy for sure.It doesn't compete with rfactor yet though.Buggy is the word of the day for netkar.Has some potential though and the options are fairly well thought out.I have yet to try it online also.I went back to rfactor after and found that I could drive ...ha...I feel for ya craig..LOL....

carerra its NOT funny when it goes wrong for forthright , u see he normally does 118(in reverse) or so at imola , now imagine a guy going that quick loosing control
, he will not only smash his car ingame , but due to physics the desk he use might aswell crash, when i was quick in the good old days , i broke my wrist from a crash in f12002 , well not due to the crash itself but the crash my hand had into the desk after , so its not funny carerra ok

if you can run rFactor, you should be able to run this m8

It does run extremely well in test mode (alone on track), but I've read some comments on the forums saying that the frame rate decreases massively when you go online and have other cars displayed on track.
I don't know about this yet as I haven't managed to do anything online.

that is true, but the developer is already working on a patch for that, so hopefully that will be fixed soon !
