It's a very good Car racing sim... About $60 and it has a very active modification community. Think of a track or a car and chances are you can download the mod files for it.

It's rather fun racing around Bathurst in a V8 Falcon against DBR9's, F430's, Zondas, Mclaren F1's... :P

Matt.

PS: Don't even bother with it unless you have either a steering wheel or (what I use) an Analogue control pad.

If you want a racing simulator get liveforspeed it's much more realistic than Rfactor.

I have this on my pc. I got a copy of it when i bought my logitech g25 wheel. I must say its an awesome game. Once you get the hang of it that is.
So far i have downloaded v8 factor and a few 2007 skins for the cars. I have all of the 2007 v8 tracks plus some other old ones like amaroo, baskerville, lakeside and warick farm.
If you into racing sims then this is the one to get. I get a lot of my down loads from http://rfactorcentral.com/index.cfm

Yeah I bought the game a couple of years ago, when the V8 supercars patch was first released. Its a very good game and is well worth the outlay!
By far the best V8SC simulation you will get at the moment.

I was involved in the V8 online scene in it for a while, but have been out of it for quite a while... still has quite a bit of a support base.

The nature of the game allows any aspect to be modified, hence the huge mod scene for a range of motorsport categories, current and historic.

Heh I would love to have a g25 to race with! would be soo much better than the logitech momo that i've got, pedals failing on it etc. It is pretty well worn mind you ;)

Yeah the G25 is awesome to race with. My mate and I are looking into making a gaming console now. Something along the lines of this

I bought a seat off ebat for $96 and we got some alloy tube for free. So now its just to scale them up and start welding Not going to worry about the tv stand though.
