I haven't been all that active recently, but I am an iRacing subscriber and their tracks are 2nd to none.

I just got a new computer which should be able to run this I think. Perfect timing! I'm in!

Jumper, I assume we can do some head to head practice? Does the xbox wheel work with a computer?

Not sure if its head to head, practice looks like just lapping by yourself. Racing is of course head to head but I am not good enough to race yet.

Just tried out Laguna Seca and Lime Rock in the Solstice. Handling in great, tracks are really well done. Did a great drift at Limerock, car control is pretty amazing.

Your xbox wheel will work if you get the wireless adapter for the PC.

Looks like you can add friends, my lasntname = blouin

Yup Multi screen capable.

There is head to head open practice, it's just that you need to choose the same practice session so you need to skype or something if you want a session with buddies. Was doing it today with a friend and had a blast.

There is also push to talk in game, so I was able to use skype and still hear and talk during the game with my headset and mic.

Ran my first race a Laguna Seca.

Every thing is well organized and easy to get in a race or just practice. Even as a rookie there is lots of stuff going on that you can get into and not have to wait.

I spent 2-3 hours downloading and setting it up this afternoon and then had to leave before I could even try it. I'm having a hard time finding a driver for my steering wheel that works with Windows 7. Hope it works out, I don't really want to buy another wheel...

man that sucks, maybe pick your self up wireless reciever or better yet get a G25 or G27. You'll want one of these for when GT5 comes out on PS3

Actually it does work with the receiver. I believe he is trying to get another wheel to work.
