well u can choose like heart rate, vision and somethin else (6 more can be unlocked later). when ur in game u can "intimidate" opponents and get XP. the heart rate allows u to not be intimidated as quickly. u can get intimidated by being tail gated etc. u get extra XP for doing fastest laps, reaching certain speeds (150kmph 200 etc.) i haven't looked into what these XP's do but im sure they unlock more modes etc. It's nothing extensive really but its alright. there are a few "niggling" points with the XP though, for instance u can get a fastest lap like 3 times with each getting faster and faster it's quick xp considerin the comp cars are easily beat. Also the "overtaking" bonus is stupid, you should only be allowed to get the overtake xp once per car. Don't be thrown off by this though its still really good

you have to play it in 1600x1200 to see some decent graphics.

I didn't enjoy this game that much.
For one thing, the menu system is very bad. It takes a long time to preform simple operations, such as changing options, saving your profile, and even starting into a race simply takes too long.
The graphics are decent, but are not as good as other racing games. Plus, the tracks look very boring and unattractive.
The controls were decent, but the feel of the cars was'nt very good. It isn't realistic enough to feel like a sim, and it isn't simple enough to feel like an arcade racer.
The cars themselves are'nt very exciting. They look alright, and if you're an Alfa Romeo fan you'll probably enjoy them, but otherwise they look rather generic and uninteresting.
I'd give this one a 6/10. It's not awful, but it's also not very fun.

well i just had a look its quite an interesting concept in a way. you can "download ghosts" to race on time trial, there isnt any split head to head but a nice way to make a highscores table

I think it allows you to 'rewind' the race in realtime. The more points you put intot he tiger skill, the father you can rewind.

Any idea how to open AA? The cars look horrible without it, you can really see the damn pixels. I thought that today games, AA should be a default option.
