 The Best SIM from Simbin December 28, 2009

1 out of 3 found this review helpful
Having owned Race07, GTR Evo, I didn't think I need to spend the money on this, after searching and reading about it, plus the price is cheap, I decided to buy
WOW, I am not sure why someone says that the Laguna Seca and Road America are bad, they are the best I have ever seen.. and I have PS3, Gran Turismo, Rfactor,etc, I also have played those track in Iracing.. Simbin just knows how to create tracks, amazing work..
Besides having a little of Race07, GTRe, Race on is more polished in every way, the track, cars, how to cars drive, awesome work... for 22$ you cant beat this sim... Provides hours of fun..
 I didn't care for Race-On December 9, 2009

I was unsatisfied with the reality of the GAME. I not a gamer but I do like a accurate racing simulation game.
I found Race-On much to difficult t use and STOPPED using after one day.
 Poor job on US tracks December 7, 2009

I purchased Race On for the two US tracks: Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca and Road America. I was excited to hear Simbin was including these tracks in Race On as I have driven both tracks in real life.
After driving them in the game, I must say that I'm very disappointed with the poor quality of the implementation. There are significant errors in the rendering of both tracks. Furthermore, there are free downloads of these tracks for GTR Evolution and Race 07 from enthusiast sites that are superior. I even went so far as to review the in-car video footage from my most recent lapping days to confirm that my perceptions were correct.
The addition of a new formula car is welcome, but is probably not worth the cost of the upgrade considering the other problems.
Bleh, it's pretty average. November 15, 2009

The GTR-E addon package adds the Camaro, Charger and Challenger. It also adds the 08 version of the BTCC. It's pretty nice, and adds a couple tracks too. Meh, you've got to have it if you're going to play GTR-E so you might as well for the price.
It's missing the newer Mustang though to compete with these cars.
However, if you haven't bought the previous versions, this one comes with Race07 and STCC also.
IMHO, it's good if you're already into racing games, and have a wheel. If not, this is a great value but you will want to get a wheel and pedal assy in order to have fun.
Cheers~!
 New cars and tracks are fun, but is it time for SimBim to make a brand new game? October 15, 2009

As you might have guessed from the product description, this is a standalone expansion pack to the Race 07 game. Exactly as advertised, it adds more cars and tracks and other than that, I did not notice any real change in graphics, controls or anything else from GTR Evolution (previous expansion).
It's definitely fun to be able to race the new cars on the new tracks, but I personally feel like it's time for SimBim to make another game already. Milking the Race 07 series will only get them so far, meanwhile the market for a brand new hardcore racer sim is wide open and sim fans are really tired of waiting.
