If any of you have SCGT (great racing sim with TONS of add-ons) there are a bunch of Porsche 917's and many new tracks you get grab for it that are VERY fun! My favorite right now is speeding around Mosport (Canada) in a pack of these beautiful cars and squeaking past them all for the win. If you have a Force Feedback wheel (I have the Logitech one) it's just way cool, and a nice break from flying and work.

is the place for incredible new tracks to race on.

is the place for all the Porsche 917's. This is my all-time favorite racing car. I've loved them since I first saw them as a 5 year old in 1970 in LeMans.

SCGT is my second favorite racing game (Whiplash is #1). I find that the 911 is too dominating once you win a few races and upgrade the HP a bumb or two. I've downloaded the F1 car for SCGT, but I haven't looked at the game recently. The visual quality of the game is still excellent (try a race at night in the rain).

Spanky here...

Sports car GT is in my top 5 PC racing games i have ever played.

It is DEFINATLY worth getting and still stands up to any racing games released today

The graphics are great but they arnt' the best part, its the feel and quality of the racing that makes it special.

It's true, the cars have a great feel, esp with a Force Feedback wheel. I love to be close behind a car hauling around Mosport, just watching the way the car ahead reacts to the bumps in the road, so cool
