Thanks. I'll remember this for the rest of my life.

just to be more pedantic, those don't even look like F1 cars but F Renault
cars - all the same, open wheels are open wheels.

I'm checking out all my sims online at the moment, and the vast, vast
majority is run on real tracks and real cars. Even third-party stuff, of
course they will do real tracks and real cars. It's just that, we as users
imho never make tracks as good as the original ones. Especially if there is
talent (ISI) creating them behind. Sure there will be hardcore freaks who
will spend months recreating Le Mans or whatever, but overall I like when
buying my sims, not to have to wait 6 months until barely raceable tracks
find their way on the net.

You've got a point, but hey people are still racing Cup cars massively in
NR2003 no? btw I'll take the Lotus please instead

In that case, you'll end up buying a sim with all the "right" tracks and
"right" cars, it will be **** to drive, it will have support for the
mainstream controllers only and will simulate no aspect of roadracing.
Because every penny went into the legal department.

If *you* want to spend your ****loads of money on that, be my guess. I
won't.

This place feels so secure and safe with the all-seing and ever-aware
Bruce Kennewell in place. :-)

I meant that I am racing N2003 mods online now. TPTCC, and soon it will be
GTP. User created cars on user created tracks. None of the Papy original
tracks. What's the difference between that and what I will be doing with
rFactor, except rFactor will have better physics, graphics, sound, and very
possibly multiplayer?

That said, I also only want to race on only very high quality mods and
tracks. I think there are plenty of good tracks made for F1C that will
quickly become available for rFactor, so I'm not concerned at all.
