If you know me, you know I'm a big Ford and Shelby fan... even belong to the Shelby nation fan club, lol... so when I heard that the newest beta (v1.3) of netKar Pro (a racing game I could care less about before) contained the Shelby Daytona Coupe... I had to have and payed my whatever yen or pound or whatever for the beta... very nice sim IMO... physics and sounds seem best I've ever heard or felt... compared to other race games I've played... how the hell do I really know how good the physics are, lol... the graphics, tracks, and cars are limited and sub-today standard... but it sure feels like a sim... anyway... I took out the Shelby Daytona Coupe for a test drive... looking good.

Looks good but the last time I tried Netkar it made my Microsoft FFB wheel oscillate badly with no way to fix it so have never tried it since.

Great screenies!

Glad to see you enjoying this great sim too, I'm loving it especially that Vintage Daytona, it just drifts and slides so well at the limit, it's a joy to drive. The Osella car and the Ford 1600 are a bunch of fun too.

There's some great add-on tracks I've been spending time with, where the bumps combine with the great tire physics to make a very fun experience, Monaco, Spa 2010, the Trento Bondone Hillclimb. This was easily one of the best bargain sim racing buys for me this year.

Also there's supposed to be a patch out in the next couple of days that fixes the crashes with online and Windows 7, I'm hoping to do some online racing once that is out.

Hoping more SHQ'ers pick this up so we can do some online racing in the future.

wet weather...
