Race Injection By Simbin

[warps]

I just picked up a game called "Race Injection" by Simbin last week. It's based on their Race07 game, with all of the add ons that have been released online. For $30 I figured I couldn't go too far wrong. So far it's been a hoot to play - much more of a sim than the GT stuff on Playstation. I find it much easier to get immersed in the experience.

The graphics are the biggest letdown (I believe they're using the same engine as when the race07 game came out). Physics are definitely a lot more realistic than GT4 / GT5 I've been playing lately. It's G27 / G25 compatible too.

So far I've had a blat in a few of the cars (Caterham is a sweet ride) but am doing some races in the retro Cooper S (good FWD fun - models the FWD handling pretty accurately). The 400HP old Corvettes and camaros are a big handful to drive, and brakes almost non existent - brings back fond memories.

Anyone else had a play with this? For $30 I reckon it's well worth a try. There are around 38 tracks (admittedly some are just different year versions of the same track) and all kinds of cars from WTCC to F3000 to retro BMW 2002's, Volvo P1800 and Cooper S's.
