WOW! The gameplay and vehicle dynamics are fantastic! I'm not a huge gamer, but this is the closest thing to being on track that I've seen in a game, especially with the force feedback wheel.

Cool. I'll have to check that out. I never did get any of the latest consoles and have stuck to PC games. What are the best PC driving games out there? The GTAIII port was a lot of fun but not really a driving game...

PS game must have as many polygons as possible...

There still a lot of people playing Grand Prix Legends, even though it's been out for three years. It's has a pretty hard game though, cars are hard to control until you get used to them and a fairly realistic sim.
I personally still play Sports Car GT, with a couple of the online mods, you can have an fairly realistic game, it's amazing when you have to dodge two computer drivers who tangle up infront of you, or surviving the first corner in a 24-car standing start. There are a lot of tracks and cars available online, I was able to make a McClaren only league, and you can make leagues that go from off-road trucks to semi racing.

Coming out soon, though their last game turned into vapor-ware after two years, is racing legends, picture looks really good, check out http://www.west-racing.com and try out the beta when it hopefully comes out later this month.

sheesh, best I've hit so far in the XF was a 1:38.6 with my touchpad, roommate's at 1:42 with his mouse. I figure I could gain maybe a second by setting some turns up a tad differently and tuning the car...
