Nobody knows that. There's a few determinated groups, but will they really
do much? Will they move on to something else in 6 months? I say wait and
see how it develops, how the game is supported officially especially. A
patch will be needed, but will they do more than that? Will they build
community tools?

We were having too much of a blast racing, you know, on *real* tracks with
*real* cars. Its not even comparable. The fact that you are comparing
rFactor to a sim release SEVEN years ago speaks for itself.
