| | Yer SK the later races can be quite frustrating. I've just unlocked the top set of races in each area now. So things should only get harder from here in. All in all really enjoying the game though. When I have to hand this back sometime this week, I think I'll re-visit DiRT, because this game reminded me how much I also enjoyed playing DiRT.

| DIRT was great, wish i hadn't sold it now. Just can't get in to GRID at all, just keep crashing in to the barriers.
Just when i thought i was in they threw me back out. |

| | I'm not sure if this will help you SteamRobot, But I've found being very delicate with the throttle helps loads with GRID. Especially some of the earlier cars in the game ( American Muscle ). With the american cars I found that full throttle caused them to loose control very easily. The handling definately took some time to get used to. Especially after playing games like PGR4.

| I'm quite far into the game now but what else is annoying me is the grid position - surely your wins should effect your qualifying position - why always stuck at the back? Enjoying the Endurance series races though - proper circuits - no barriers - happy days.

I am going to try this. TBH, I have really struggled to get into playing this, spinning off was getting quite frustrating! I do think there is a great game in there somewhere, I really enjoyed Dirt.

| I'm now most of the way threw the game, won a 24 hour race  . The sponsors later on in the game give out big money  .The faster GT1 cars are quite a handful also. Feathering the throttle is the only way. To much pedal to the metal and you're in the wall. I think controlling most of the cars in the game,you need alot of throttle control, or they all can be a handleful. The more I've played the game in singleplayer the more I've enjoyed it. And for those who are maybe struggling with the handling, stick with it, and I'm sure youll get into it .

| | I quite like the handling of the F3000 cars - can catch slides very well - haven't tried them with the controller but with the wheel they handle really nice. I am on the LM cars at Le Mans and they're fantastic although they're deceptively "pointy" even though they obviously have a heck of a lot of grip.

| | Really enjoying this now, after a reduction in the difficulty levels! The rewind option works well, technically it could be called cheating and I am sure racing purists would never dream of using it, but it has saved my car from destruction many, many times.
