As the release of netKar PRO 1.0.3 comes closer, the netKar PRO team decided to release the official netKar PRO 1.0.3 Manual now already.

Formula-SimRacing.net website [30-09-2008 | JZ | Comments (0) ]
We have spent many hours behind the scene, thinking how to improve the feeling of a simracer. We want to give you, as simracer, a real feeling of solidarity with our FSR league. You will see that we have seperated our old FSR website, which was basically a big database called GPCOS. We will still be using this website, but only for the technical aspects as registrations, login area and all technical news (tracks, mods, updates).
The new website will solely be used as a news website, comparable with sites as http://f1.gpupdate.net/. This site is for you, our FSR members, it will feature rumours, interviews, talks and much more for you to have a greater experience as FSR simracer.
To celebrate the new website, we release the FSR Prizes for this World Championship season. We want to thank our sponsors Act-Labs, and X6 Simulations for their support! Last but not least we want to thank PSR TV for providing our Live Broadcasts!

FIM Speedway Grand Prix 3 Review [22-09-2008 | JZ | Comments (0) ]
If I know one thing, it is European stadium dirt bike racing. Just kidding. Actually, I saw this on Gamer’s Gate and said, “huh, that looks different.” So here we are, a review of FIM Speedway Grand Prix 3. I am a fan of quality racing simulations and it's always good to try something new (like Brussels sprouts). Plus, the developer is responsible for Xpand Rally, which was a good game. Off to the races!

GTR Evolution Review [15-09-2008 | JZ | Comments (0) ]
Another year, another SimBin racing title. Not that there is anything wrong with that, as SimBin has been responsible for a series of quality racing simulations, starting with GTR and continuing through last year's RACE 07. This year's iteration is effectively a combination of SimBin's two series, taking the fantastic RACE 07 gameplay and adding in the GT cars from games past. GTR Evolution takes an interesting approach to the standalone expansion: existing owners of RACE 07 can buy it for $20, or new players can get both games in one package for $40.
