Default VRC - A simple game or a good training tool?

Here's my opinion!

Interesting, I agree in as much as that you can sit there sharpening your reflexes and any track time IS track time..... but it isn't cheap, not when you compare it to other racing games, with the VRC adaptor, I use it to play numerous race simulators as found trying to get a decent frame rate frustrating to say the least, and to really make the most of it, you have to spend a fair penny to get a set of cars and tracks.

What other racing games that offer good practice can you introduce us to then?

I have an old cheap shitbox computer and a 19" screen, but I still managed 2nd at the worlds, so I don't think decent frame rate was that hard to achieve...

In terms of costs, that is up to each user, but for me, it cost a bit to get started, but I only bother with racing short course. And also, I race a lot and improve, so I win some Veuros here and there, and you also get that for various achievements, so I can't really say it's been very expensive for me.

It all depends on what you compare it to... I live in Norway, so everything is expensive, and VRC pretty cheap:-P

Must admit, I tried VRC when short course was added, but didn't think much to it at all..

Didn't get any sense of realism, haven't used it since..
