    That's what I was wondering, I was looking forward to it.

    So...how does this compare to RR1?

    I'm one of those folks who have had RR1 on my phone since release day and have a hard time imagining it being better. Licensed cars and better graphics alone would not be a worthwhile jump up for me given the 600+ mb file size.

    What are the compelling upticks from RR1 given the expected polish and perfection I already see in RR1 (and Flight control)?

    Thanks for the vid. I love the 360 views of cars at the beginning.

    Sigh. So it looks like we're not getting voice chat. That's a shame.

    I'm not saying I hate Flight Control but... I totally hate Flight Control. Of all the games to tie in voice chat. It's not that it's a bad game. I'm just terrible at it. I tried out the voice chat, though and it's amazing. Of course, the only chatter I was getting was the other player telling me I shouldn't quit my day job. Came across crystal clear though!

    Hmm, looks pretty, but from the posted videos the physics look atrocious - typical arcade-style throw it into the corner at any speed and it won't understeer or oversteer but happily bounce of any nearby cars and carry on.

    Can any "sim experts" comment on the physics on this game? I've got plenty of arcade racers and don't want to put down $10 on another one. I'd like a decent sim-racer.

    The first game was sooo hard...
    This is definitely "real" racing lol, so different from easy games like Asphalt.
    The graphics in this one look amazing. I hope it's not photoshopped screenshots though. How does this game look on the iPad (not sure if iPad has that retina support)?

    This has now become my most wanted game tonight! This looks to be like Real Racing, tuned and perfected.

    Cannot wait!

    Hmm, did you watch the muscle car in the online races toward the end of the 1st and last youtube videos posted in this thread so far? I would hardly say that one cannot oversteer...

    Do you mean the one in post 90? If so, that crazy steering and crashing car just seems invincible and defies the laws of physics!

    I guess I ask too much of a mobile sim racer. But I know when I've found a good racer when I go into a corner too fast and I just know I'm not coming out the other side unscathed. I would call that the " o o o o h h h s h i i i i i i ...." moment :eek:)

    I'm disappointed. It's not sim like at all, no manual shift, and the cars do nice slides around the corners no matter how fast you're going or what car you're in.

    I was hoping for a game better than GT Racing Academy or Hot Pursuit even, in the actual Realness of the Racing.

    3/5
