rFactor V. 1.255 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I got this a few years ago and have been happy with it. This game is really the successor to the F1 Challenge series EA and ISI put out a while ago that is also heavily modded. I have F1 seasons and tracks from 79,88,91,05,06,07,08,09 as well as Champ Car 05-06, Indycar 94-95,08-09, GT cars, Mclaren F1 Challenge, Zonda Challenge,Historic Rally Cars Mod, F430 Challenge, and a lot of single cars for use in the all tracks and cars series.

You can use any track for any car you have, say using Indycars on F1 tracks or GT cars on Ovals. I've got I would say about 100 tracks from the modding sites as well as the series mentioned above for over 20GB's of data, so rFactor is really not about the stuff it comes with but the stuff you can get online that makes it the ONLY racing game you should have. You can get Formula Japan, GP2, and many other series cars and tracks. They are free to download and the details and graphics are amazing in most of them, the best I've seen are the CDTP F1 2006 and IDT Champcar and Indycar series. The GT ALL 3.96 comes with both new and old GT cars in a lot of paint jobs and configurations, including Porches, Mosler, Corvette, Viper, Saleen, Ferrari and any of the other GT1/2/LM/etc. classes you can think of.

There are hundreds of tracks to download and race from every corner of the world as well as fantasy tracks and cars. Like I said you can race any car on any track. Either they have self installers or you just copy and paste into the locations folder to install, the same goes for the cars.

This is really best for open wheel, touring cars, Stock cars and any other asphalt/circuit based racing, it's OK for dirt rally or trucks but those are best in the dedicated games like Collin Mcrae or Richard Burns. This game is fairly easy to adjust the difficulty and other settings once you play around with it. I'm no strict sim player and thankfully you can pretty much adjust it to whatever level you want.

This game also has multiple 3rd party plugins for realistic cameras, textures, data acquisition, wet tracks and almost anything else. You should go to [...], fileplanet or softpedia to get cars, tracks and plugins. So depending on your level of interest this game could replace your collection of separate games for separate racing types and be relevant for a long time to come, every race game fan should get this period.
