Sooooooo.

I've been getting bored.

I was wondeirng if there were any cool racing games (like Gran Turismo and such) on PC.

Something free, preferably not online (in cause my internet sucks), etc.

Byaw.

live for speed is probably the best racing sim I've played for PC that has a free demo but's still fun.

GTR2

there are a few torrents out there of the game... one is a simple copy paste and play version.

Its a grip game and doesnt put a whole lot of strain on your computer.

if you have dial up it will take you a day to get it (small file size)

I vote for LFS its really fun and easy and you can drift in it, GTR2 is awesome too so I say LFS wins because you can get it for free and still do lots of things in it.

GTR2 is a great game. But it lags on my notebook. Is LFS as computer straining as GTR2?

Try it out see how it goes ^

GTR2 was quick on my old pc setup which was geared at being decent back in 2005. If you laptop is older than 2004 that might explain it...

My $300 Compaq (with EVERYTHING) works great with LFS...

I just now need to learn how to drift in LFS...and the setup.

I can't drift worth shit and i'm gettin angry.

If you really get into it you can search for lfs forums and people post up their grip/drift setups that you can download onto teh game.

Oh yeah and make sure you are using mouse to steer not keyboard.

How do you make the car go?

GTR 2 is the best I've came by

than the obvious Need for Speed games sure they aren't very realistic but there dam fun.

edit: as I see other comments I will state GTR 2 is most likely more graphic intensive it really depends on your computers video card.

yeah use the keyboard for gearshift and viewchange thats it. You need to be able to steer fast with the mouse, left click gas, right click brake.

LFS with the hack is wayy fun. u can change everything the car has. u can have a rb26 boosting 44psi if you'd like. or v12 with 44psi, tires sizes basically everything can be changed
its amazing!!!!!!!!!
