Looks awesome! It will probably have some annoying bugs at first so I will wait at least a month before trying it.

They say that the delay in release has been to work out most of the bugs. We'll see I guess.

If they could release it without any bugs it would be monumental. I am definitely looking forward to it though.

Same here. Sadly, I won't be able to begin the download due to time zone issues. Gameplay will have to wait for Saturday.

Hmmm just downloaded the trial version but it seems I can only do on-road? Is there any way to test offroad for free?

Nope. You can only run the SCT with a 17.5T on the practice ground. It's borderline insulting to give that to users. (It's about as fast as a stock Dominus)

They did say that they were coming out with a public release off-road track.

You mean one that will be available in trial lisences? That'll be what I'm waiting for.

Yup. Let's hope it's not boring and short.

A bunch of local racers have started a private weekly VRC racing session where last night was the first time and we had a blast!

Here are some things I've learned:

* The DSC cable that comes with both the FS-GT2 and FS-GT3B radios works perfectly
* You must have the Tx turned on so be sure you have a full charge on your batteries!
* The Free 30 Day trial membership is limited to 2 on-road tracks so you have to purchase either the light or full membership if you want to race the off-road tracks
* The racing experience is extremely accurate and about the equivalent of using "Real Flight Simulator"
* You have to own a "Gamer PC" as the graphics are intense, I met all the min reqs except I was able to get away with a 128MB video card where 256MB was receommended
* There is also an option for "no contact" which allows racers to overlap each other on the same race line without bumping each other off the track, this single feature alone makes VRC extremely more fun than real world RC

I highly recommend this game and feel that it was worth every penny!

If anyone is interested in doing a private URC race, I will be happy to set something up.

Free public track is now available, pretty good fun

Cheers
