"Very Good Game"
This game is fantastic. Physics is great, cars aren't bad, and the tracks are great.
However, online can get frustrating, as the cars can get destroyed quite easily, so you have to be careful not to hit anyone, otherwise people get very angry at you, and aims to destroy your car, making you sit out for the rest of the round!
"Great graphics, but really needs a wheel to play."
The graphics, and sounds are delicious, it is best played with a good speaker system turned up quite loud for best effect. The developers also made a great job on the physics, hence the crashes are almost more fun than the driving, the big thing for me however was that as I play with just the keyboard I found it just too difficult to handle the cars well enough to actually win many races even on the basic setting. Just touching the arrow keys to turn results in an oversteer. Perhaps I will hang on to the game until I get a wheel to get the most out of it, right now I can only give it a 3 at best unfortunately.
"Once you learn how to control the cars it rocks"
Another Racedriver game and like Racedriver 3 (which incidently I recommend) you get to drive various cars from touring cars to open wheelers around some of the world's top circuits including Street circuits. Graphics are excellent and have pit bosses to boast you as well as a sexy sounding female manager. On the down side controlling the cars is not easy and it takes a lot of practice. Once you've done that its well worth the money so if you like car racing games then go for it.

Bleeding great game. excelent range of races, nice handling, nice damage, and its bleeding difficult at times. And despite some people claiming it doesnt support a wheel… they obviously havent used google.
out of the box, wheel support is a joke, but if you turn off driving aids – specificaly the one that tampers with understeer – you instantly get perfect steering on a wheel. (saying this with a logitech momo – meaning anyone with a g25 will have excelent support).
excelent game, with an awesome range of races – it never gets dull and boring.
