If you guys haven't heard about this sim yet, it's shaping up nicely. They have a unique strategy for the development, allowing members to pay a small fee to download it and have a say in the way it turns out. When the retail version comes out, these members get a discount. There are various packages at different price points available giving you different levels of participation including adding content if you are a programmer. They release new builds at least weekly and you can watch the sim progress as they work on it. I've seen a huge jump in progress in the couple of months I've been testing it. After using iRacing pretty much since the beginning, I was turned off towards it by the slow addition of content but mostly the release of the new tire model. The physics of Project C.A.R.S. has a much better feel to me and the graphics and sound blow iRacing away. It is yet to be seen how the actual racing will be when it is released.

Didn't have to worry about the job...due to medical issues I have been off the job for two years now...I will starting back to work the 1st of May, so work will become a factor once again.

I was more worried about where in the Sim racing schedule I could fit it in ? :wink:
