Hmm. Not like I actually have a wheel. I'll bookmark it. The last good racer I played was Dirt to Daytona, on... GameCube? Through the Wii. Lightweight Sim, with stuff to tinker with, and structured racing seasons. Nearly the last AAA racing sim before EASports bought everything. There are certainly others now (I'm following a few YouTube people who are looking for them, mostly they end up with arcade racers) but I try not to spend over $25 on my bug-fests these days.

He did hand over the code, I think. They do that. But still, not having the game there would be... less than desired. He'd stopped work on it a while back, but hadn't made it official until a new round of inquiries came along.
