Overall impressions
The game has top level graphics, but with many glitches such as late redraw of whole blocks of foliage, espesially in replays and flow hickups. Handling is good and you get used to it after the first 10 stages. Force feedback effects in steering wheel (remember to diconnect and reconnect the wheel within game) are smooth and well behaving and will not surprise you. If you have played the Dirt series you will feel familiar with the menus and available events. Car weight is a serious issue as it usualy causes the front wheels to lock while braking and the car refuses to turn, but gradually you get used to it. U-turns are again a very difficult move to master, unless you put a lot of time in practicing each stage. You usually don't have to use the handbrake, or if you do, use it just momentarily.
