I just figured out how to play online. Anyone up for some racing tomorrow?

I also had a chance to play with the track editor/creator. That was a lot of fun! You can play with a few different parameters and layouts but it's not as in-depth as I'd hoped.

Al, I'm home from work by 6 and planning to do some drinking and driving before going out.

Will you be around then?

Are there more karting experiences later in the game? So far the first two (beginner & intermediate) are pretty fun, but the tracks are basically just big ovals. Would love to see road course.

Also, is there a shortcut to buy a required car for a race? For instance, one race has a specific list of compact Japanese cars, but it's frustrating to have to remember the whole list and go shopping for them.

I suck, managed a 1.36.684 There are several seconds to be shaved if you achieve a clean lap.

Yep I got a Mexico Blue BTR (like a mid-'90s 930). SICK. There are 5 or 6 RUFs in the game, but they'll all be used. I cannot emphasize how important it is to check the used lot over and over. I picked up a sweet Evo V that I use for my '90s Japanese races. My first car was a Mk1 GTI for $8K on the used lot - I spent the other $12K on mods.

I love this game a ton. So far I've only been playing GT Mode since I want to make mega-bucks and buy some of those $15-20 million cars. Also, there are several Zondas, not just the Zonda R in the showroom. Those of you with the Collector's Edition should check out the car list at the back of the booklet - it lists all of them in the game.

I just won a '65 Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GTA... awesome. It'll be my go-to '60s car until I can get that Jag XJR13 or the original GT40.
