C.A.R.S. sim

[Diderot]

Seems like an interesting new concept.

When I get my laptop fixed I think I will download that.

Blimey - just checked this morning - they've got 2,100 members already. I might just buy into this.

Looks pretty tasty!

Looks very nice! I'm impressed with the shadowing and light effects, and the open-wheel dynamics look brilliant!

[RedLeicester]

Wow, that looks great, same bunch behind GTR and so on too.

Am I missing something here or do you have to pay €10 to trial the Beta and or be involved in the dev??? You can't even read the forum....

Only €25,000 to be part of senior management.....

Yeah - it's like a public alpha build - that's what they're saying. So I paid 10 euros to download the basic thing (few cars and tracks), and you get to participate in the development - crowd funding I must say it's a good drive even this early on. 3.6k members too, already.

How does it handle? Is it like GTR or Shi(f)t?

Think I'd rather spend my dosh on a more developed sim like iRacing than cough up for a track and few cars.

Good luck to them though.

Slightly Mad retweeted my crazy tweet when I said...

I think MG should give Slightly Mad Studios support for C.A.R.S and have the MG6 GT in the sim! @MGmotor @slightlymadteam

SMS have got a license from Motorsport Vision for 4 of the circuits. (didn't see this news a week ago)

I am a member too - haven't tried the sim yet, but if they follow on from their promises on the no-grip thread (where the idea started) then it'll end up OK.

[Stew2000]

I have it. and the handling is like Shift2 at the moment. takes a while to setup your wheel for a perfect balance.
