what do you think the best overall racing sim is?

consider pc specs now to then and what sims are available, what would be the best sim overall, if pcs where good enough to run rF or iracing back in the days of the early Pentiums and 1mb video cards, or if the sims like GPL or Indycar Racing 2, Nascar Racing could take advantage of today pc capabilities?

my guess would be GPL, but i did love Indycar

what do you think? :kamikaze:

After playing almost any game that has been released in the last 12 years I can say that I got a pretty good overview of whats around.

Grand Prix 2 will always have a special place as it was the first proper simracing game I played.

Regarding physics and feeling Grand Prix Legends set the marker which still stands today, you really felt as if you were in one of those nasty F1-rockets driving through a forest at close to 300 kph.

there were some games with interesting ideas like Netkar were you had to push several switches to get the engine running, like in a Flight Simulator.

F1-Challenge 99-02 just was great because it had the biggest amount of cars :spike:

Modding wise its a pretty close run between Sports Car GT and rFactor. Both had some very easy to do stuff but also things that could drive you nuts.


Overall I'd say GPL wins.
