Hi All,

I just spent the afternoon racing coopers around race tracks against jags, cortinas and falcons. It was on a pc racing sim called "gt legends". Almost painful when you krank up th realism but a ball all the same.

Here is the link for the game. http://www.gt-legends.com/screens_en.php
I bought at electronics boutique for $50 though I saw it on ebay for $40.

Alas no rally or Bathurst but you can play multiplayer online.

Been playing this for a fail while now.

Just upgraded my pc, so it looks + sounds a lot better now, a much better driving experience than before.

+ with this sim you can thrash your mini and not have to worry about breaking anything :) The handling is pretty close to the real thing, but i dont think the grip is spot on, tends to understeer a whole heap.

Ya I noticed the under steer. I am going to try and work on the car setup to see what I can do. Though I reckon I'm gonna have to learn to drift the mini.

They designers even got the mini 1st gear whine down pat as well. Pity there is no bathurst though. That would be fun.
