    I got in last minute to the "Hotlanta Challenge" w/ NASA, it was my first time on RA other than sims :) and watching American LeMans. What a blast, it's all I can think about now. Link to pics below. Day 1 I drove very conservative and felt it all out. By day 2 I was doing really well in HPDE2, but much much work to be done on alot of those corners.

    I have GTR2 on PC and Forza 2 on XB360. GTR2 has Barber MSP and RA as downloads, as well as most other tracks. The physics for the downloadable STi on GTR2 aren't great, it plows like a mofo no matter what you do but more realistic than Forza. The STi in Forza 2 drives more like my car when it's tweaked a bit.

    Anyone know what the current best sims are for PC? Preferably one with the STi?

    Here's another pic, my fave!

    rfactor or gtr evo for PC

    I'll probably bring my setup to petit with a projector and let people race

    best racing sim for the pc is, IMO, iracing. It's pricey up front, but it's by far the best game out there.

    It's what all the pro's use when they arent racing.

    That would be cool, plus we can see the effect of 12 beers on lap times.
