Great racing game

This game has got to be the most realistic racing game, except no damage at all. There are hundreds of cars to choose from, from over 5 different countries and over 20 companies. The new cars are the F-1 Cars!! They are very hard to race against, since they are pretty much perfect..but once you beat them, you get the best car! The cars have very tight grip and max acceleration, so you should master driving other cars and than drive this car; this car is only for proffesionals. Each car has its own handling as it would turn in real life. You also can customize your cars with tons of upgrades, engine, paint color, etc. Now you also can customize your wheels from gold to red and green to white. Another smart feature is the Driving License system. In order to do the some of the beginner's races you will need an easy license, but as you gradually get to the harder races, you will need a better license to know how to handle the cars. The weather in-game is also excellent. During rainy races, your car handles just as it would in real life, slip and slide. Also if you are the nighttime guy, there are lots of midnigt time course you can race at. Another unique kind of race is the rally racing. You race on bumpy dirt/sand tracks against another car; nice dust effects too. Now you can even race with F-1 Cars!! They are very hard to race against, since they are pretty much perfect..but once you beat them, you get the best car!
