many hours of racing and customisation had there. but then i would highlu recommend any of the NFS titles. theyre just brilliant. enthusiastically awaiting the release of underground 2!
this game looks pretty sweet too. iv just never heard of it. but like you say, it is a low budget thing. i wish it well.
NFS:Underdog is a great arcade title, with cool graphics, but the handling is just plain crap. The handling of LFS is so realistic that the McGill FSAE team use it to test setups etc. for the MRT5 [small open-wheeler seen in JJ72's post]. Two or three of the real-life MRT5 drivers are registered on the LFS Forum, and they say that the LFS handling is virtually identical to the real-life handling.
There are cars to suit almost anyone, with high and low-powered front and rear-drive cars, and a 4WD. Not at all bad for £12
