Depends on what you like.

For open wheel racing, GPL is still king despite its age. Graphical and
sonic updates (GPLEA), and the mods like 65 and - soon - 69 and 55,
renew its lease of life every time.

As for GTR or GTR, I'd choose GTR You probably mean GT4 or
something, but GTR has a good reputation among hardcore simracers, if
the multiplayer code gets an update, that is.

RFactor is very commercial, just the input of mods is likely to be
relatively bigger.

> Rally ---> RBR or Colin McRae Rally 2005 ?

RBR has decidedly the best rep ATM, although for vintage rallyin' Rally
Trophy is OK as well, especially now that there are improvements from a
small mod community.

My advise would be GPL as it is still "The King of Sims" and open-wheel
racing on VROC is most exciting online (combined with one of the best
multiplayer experiences and the privilege of having 400+ tracks to
choose from), and if you master GPL you've got a very sturdy hardcore
simracing experience to go explorin' further in any direction. Besides,
yer average 2 GHz+ pc these days is likely to run it like thunder.

For rallying I'd definitely check out RBR, if your computer can handle
it. For moddability it's probably rFactor in the coming years - unless
West Racing suddenly shows up from fairyland

GTR

LFS

RBR

Without question on all three. (for me anyway)

Commercial currently available --> GTR (if your pc can handle it...)
or
GPL (showing its age, but will run on older machines)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Commercial (soon to be available) --> rFactor (I play the demo more
than most "complete" commercial games).
or
LFS S2 (great net code, and improved graphics and physics - but looks
like the sound will still be a bit uninspiring)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rally --> RBR (Great physics! But I get lonely playing (racing)
with myself

RBR is online now though! And RBR is awesome - had it for a week and haven't
managed to complete even a stage - GPL part deux for sure, quite a steep
learning curve (will i ever learn?!)

I cannot believe no one has yet mentioned EA's superb Nascar Simracing.

The current king of racing simulations without any shadow of a doubt.

uh

Since it is the king of racing sims can you post a list of all the leagues
that are currently running it?

Is that uh as in uh? or just some neanderthal grunt?

In the post refering to the history of sim racing Dan Leach wrote:

"GPL doesn't get a mention?"

To which you replied

"Quit flogging a dead horse."

The context of that post was relating to the history of sim racing, not what
is the best current racing sim. Do you really believe GPL doesn't rate in
the history of sim racing?

Your next post, some 20 mins later, was in relation to the current best
sims. Once again you are the lone voice repeatedly touting EA's NSR as the
best thing since sliced bread whilst the jury seems firmly out as to whether
this will be patched into something half decent. Hence the irony of
repeating your previous post...
