Something that hasn't been mentioned much is the amazing damage modeling within the game. It's really good, not just on the cars, but the enviornment as well. Run into a picket fence, and it does some damage to the car, and destroys the fence. Run into a tree, and your car is demolished (sometimes even undrivable ).

been playing all weekend..., its a real gfx hog and I really don't care for all the BLOOM and HDR. There is just to much of it. The steering is way twitchy in tarmac but ok in dirt and gravel. I can't get a settings that works well on both.

I have finished the first tier and am working on the second, can't wait for the spring pikes peak run....

I have tried doing some mods like I have been reading on the hdr. Some I dnl'd were to dark and only good per track. I tried making one my own and the colors went all wack and the bloom got worse! 8O I restored it all so I'll wait till someone release a good editor.

I noticed there is an xml for rainfx. I enabled it but nothing happened. I saw it was tied to a rainfx plugin in a data location. The location did not have the file so thats probably why it didn't work. hmmm, I suppose there may be some updates on the way.
