Has anyone downloaded this yet?

You get a chance to time trial a standard and modified 370z.

So far I've managed

position 6000 odd on standard and 4000 odd modded

Wondering if anyone else is giving this a shot?

Would be good to share some replays \:D/

currently about 1500 on the modified 370 and 2500 on the unmodified one but not really used that one much.

I downloaded this very excited since I thought it was going to be a taster of GT5 - i.e. damage modelling, stunning graphics etc... when neither of these was the case I quit the game and uninstalled it... the GT developers are taking the mickey in my opinion, the game is now 2 years late.

I've still got the proper one on pre-order - however due to the wait, i think they've shot themselves in the foot... anything less than perfect (due to the circumstances) will be shown in quite a bad light me thinks.

Still can't wait to get through the game and start playing with the F1 cards tho :) - that Ferrari on Prologue was an awesome driving experience with my G25 wheel :D

i've downloaded it, played it a few times but i'm way off the pace to be honest.

It's the first racing game i've played in god knows how many years, as once modern warfare 1 was released all i've done is play the different Call of Duty games online.

I about 5 secs off the fastest time in the modified 370Z and around 6 secs off the fastest time in the standard car, i think that those times put me into the 9000's in both cases.

Wasn't too impressed with the game at first though, i find the ghost car very off-putting at times (which i know you can turn off if you want) but once you have damage and are able to do as you wish with your car and drive on different tracks i think it will be a lot better.

I'll definitely be buying it, no matter what the reviews are like.
