So that twisty mountain country road thing in the background of some of the pictures is that an actual playable circuit or is it just for pictures?
It's just a photo space, it would make an excellent road for PHers, just hoon up n down it having fun rather than racing. Would make an excellent DLC addition.

Cheers, that's in the queue to download when I get home smile .

Are we doing a PH time trial board like FM3 for this until the game is released?

i drove the impreza first, was a bit boring and inert.

then tried the bmw thingy, blue one, that was much more realistic feeling. finally a console racing game where the car can snap away from you if you give it stupid steering inputs. it actually responds ok to the steering.

then i tried the zonda which was very docile and very hard to spin.

the track is a bit crap in my opinion, i've spent a lot of time around lauterbrunnen/wengen/grindelwald and it completely fails to evoke a feeling of being in those surroundings. It's a crap track for the demo because there are basically no braking points or real corners, it's just like someone plonked a motorway on the alp and it's a bit rubbish.

Well I'm a happy chappy! Played the Impreza which was ok but then had a go in the Zonda, fantastic. It sounds incredible, must turn it down before the neighbours complain.

The track could have been better, like has already been said its all a bit samey with no real braking zones.

Overall though very, very happy. Might just have another blast in the Zonda. smile

A small observation I've made from the demo; When the car creeps forward towards it's grid position and the countdown to the start of the race begins, it's almost as if the driver (you) is recovering from some sort of concussion. Has anyone else noticed that the sound is really muffled and the in-car driver cam is slightly blurred, but suddenly your vision and sound improves when the race starts? Odd! hehe

Just to add, the demo is fantastic! I cannot wait for the full version smile

Well one big problem. The Impreza amd M5 have the same engine sound FFS, which itself sounds a bit like a 5 cylinder. I hope this won't be the same for the full game but it's a bit of a shame to fk up the demo like this. Also, the track is a bit crap, Hockenheim should've been used.
