Those stock cars were SO hard to handle, man. We nred to figure out the best circuit to race those on. To my knowledge none of the oval tracks exist in the game yet.
Also, can you create a PCARS subforum under Gaming? Sounds like we are embedded enough to warrant it at this point, right?

It should be available once they update the store after 5pm EST I think.
In the meantime, here's a quick practice session before qualifying for the Renault Clio Cup:
 
 
Things I love about the sound in this game are the little things that a lot of people won't notice like the turbo blow-off valve sound, or if a car hits the dirt/rocks in front of you, you'll hear them ping off your car as they fly up and you drive through them.  
 

I think with this particular group of gamers, ArmA 3 has a bit more of an appeal than Battlefield anyways.  It doesn't take much convincing.

EXCELLENT overview, man. I forgot the game released, so I will need to verify my download happened! Will give it some gameplay starting today. 

These are the types of missions I want to do. Looks like he has some nice mods.
 
 

I've been playing for about 4 hours now, and here's what I've concluded so far.
Visuals
The game looks really good.  The lighting is amazing.  Trackside isn't always the best looking, but the cars themselves are really good looking inside and out, and the weather effects are quite good.  This is probably one of the better looking games I've played in the PS4, and definitely the best racing game I've played (understandably).
Sound
The sounds are absolutely incredible.  One of my favourite parts of the game so far is just hearing the engines scream at 9000rpm, then the slight jump in RPM to bounce off the redline as you jam the clutch in to shift.  It just captures the sound so well.  
Vehicle Handling
The handling of the cars is pretty damn good.  It really puts emphasis on getting your tires and brakes warm before you can really run good laps.  So far, every race I've been in needed 1 lap to properly warm up the drive tires.  Once the tires show green on your HUD, you're good to go all out.
Controls 
If you're playing with a controller, you really really need to spend 10-15 minutes fine tuning the adjustments.  I found the stock settings did not go well with my way of driving, so I had to modify them.  I started with the settings found here and adjusted them accordingly to my style.  Once that was set, I had a hell of a better time controlling my car.
 
I went into the Clio Cup for my first class of races.  You can really tell the difference between FF, FR, MR, and RR vehicles in this game, and it feels like it's not just 'FF understeers, FR oversteers' etc.  The cars really do feel completely unique.  So far other than the Clio, I've taken the Caterham Classic, BMW 320 Turbo (a ton of fun), the classic Merc 190E Evolution (another hugely fun car to drive), and Formula A (see video below) out for a spin, and have enjoyed all of them so far.  The game really does have most major racing disciplines covered, and I'm really looking forward to trying out all of them.  Even karts, which GT really put me off of.
Here's a video of me testing out the Formula A for the first time.  I've read in a lot of places they're very difficult to handle, so I took it slow, warmed up the tires, then tried to do a full speed lap.  I'm racing with stability control and ABS, manual gearbox, no traction control, no racing line or anything (I tried the racing line but it was pretty bad. Break points were way off).

Really wish I started PC gaming earlier ... I am going to keep practicing in private sandbox rooms ... if you ever see me in a room the password will be induced .... 

This game can be really quite nice looking.

Nice; BTW, I can't believe I let some of you talk me into buying Hardline; you don't even play the game that much! Its all good; the game is just going to collect dust on the digital shelf while I continue my GTA V, Destiny, Diablo III conquests until my ARMA III rig is ready.
Maybe I will see more of you on Project Cars.
Chad, you owe me $60, homie.

I can understand Kotaco buying the game a 3rd time now on PC.  Mods are awesome.
 
 

You should be able to change the channel on the router. Most routers come with the ability to do this on wifi because of the saturation of the 2.4 Ghz spectrum.

Even then you were a wicked sniper, and terrible driver. You used other baby buggies as brakes in in the turns.

That's what she said.

Yeah I find the single player does a good job of walking through the main controls.

It does take some time to get used to. I still get hung up on some controls after 20+ hours.
I suggest going to the NATO missions that I mentioned in another thread. It's only you and the open world with your weapons and all the vehicles at your disposal to get used to.

R7 is a series of video cards.  There will be a more specific number with it, like 260, 270, etc.  
2GB is a good start, but GDDR3 is generally used a few generations ago.  Not saying it's bad, just a bit older.
You should be able to tell exactly what card you have by running 'dxdiag' from the text box at the bottom of the start menu.  
The card you have will be under the 'Display' tab.  If that doesn't work, download CPU-Z or Aida64. Those will tell you more about your computer.

I apologize ​for the times when the camera freaks out, still messing with the controls and fine tuning. 

Upgraded PSU (from donor computer), added 4GB ram (8 total), and a video card that barely fit.  I'm almost ready, just need to get a 6-pin PCI-e cable to plug in the monster video card and I'll be set.

 

That's awesome Flyers, congratulations! Fuck those other guys.

A little update:
I returned to work this week and the week was stressful to say the least. My company attempted to demote me without giving me a reason why and the bosses were all over my ass for things that were beyond my control. It wasn't the return to work I was looking forward to having. 
 
Needless to say, this made me miserable. A friend of mine got a new job and he told me about it. I went to the company that hired him and they hired me right there on the spot. They offered me more money than I'm currently making, better benefits, more paid time off, more training, room for advancement, and a better overall work environment. 
 
Needless to say, I'm very excited about going to this new company and the opportunity to succeed. 
 
My my first day at the new job will be May, 4th. 

I did a comparison of my current GPU to the new one.  I think it'll work well.

 

Almost ready.  Just waiting on upgraded CPU.
