Maybe I'm a bit late with this, but I never new the Project Gotham Racing 2 for the Xbox included the Norschliefe! Might have to get myself one!

Anyone played it? Ben Lovejoy's report is glowing realism and from a non-gamer!

Nicely said Joel - taking the MR2 Turbo round was *completely* different to the Viper. Much as I loved the car, they can be replaced. The Viper is too special to risk a visit to the armco!

Bought an Xbox yesterday and PGR2 - Norschleife circuit is locked! Will have to play all weekend now to unlock it

Finally unlocked the Nürburgring circuit at the weekend. Joel - it is SO realistic in almost every detail - just don't take the speeds as actual around the bends as they are a bit on the high side

Impossible to keep it in the banked section of the Karussell, and one wheel on the grass normally leads to a date with the Armco. Great way to learn the track and even the best lines. Glad I've driven it for real as learning each bend on the Xbox would take some dedication. Night and fog modes are interesting!

Shame I get beaten online by 12 year olds though Anyone else online, look out for me 'GTS Viper'

Thanks Graham, I'm keen to see this, is it available for PC. Any plans for the Ring this season, is Simon taking the Caterham ?
Only on Xbox I'm afraid, but look at the link on the original post to see some screen shots.

Hope to get to the 'ring sometime this year although nothing firm yet. Simon is racing in Europe this year and may try and combine with that...
