Had quite a few years off and saw AC and dived back in, still struggling to enjoy it tho to be honest...only been playing a month or so...so we will see if I stuck with it, certainly not addicted like I was with RF or race.

Have tried most sims/driving games, but netKar Pro with xgn gotme hooked seriously. So have been sim racing for quite a few years now, and probably will for a few more yet, although at 65 y/oI'm getting slower instead of faster lol. (beats watching tv any day) Dave O.

I deal in facts! No, you deal in pink horseys and kitties & stuff.That above statement is a certified fact. I tried most sims from papyrus, ISI, simbin and Kunos. Had quite a bit of a break from it with the odd casual run but not much online stuff since rf1 til AC. AC is the first sim that really feels more natural to me and has got me fairly well hooked.

Memory is a bit vague but it must have been about 7 years ago I got introduced to Rfactor via XGN. In addition I did NetkarPro which Wally ran and now still doing Rf1 and of course AC. You could probably count on one hand the amount weekly races I have missed in that time.
