Has anyone seen this site? - 01-11-2005, 02:13 PM

http://www.virtualrc.com/ it's really cool except that they only do on-road but the idea is awsome and the game is pretty good. The one thing that I saw on there that was really coool was a device they sell that you hook up your reciever to and it lets you use your regular radio for the game(you can use a keyboard or joystick if you don't want to pay for the radio hookup). Check it out it's free to join and get the basic game with 2 tracks. The cars are all 1/10 and 1/8 scale on-road. Name brands are used for the products/cars(Associated,HPI,Schumaker,OFNA and others) and they are actually quite tunable. The game seems to be more of a simulator than just a arcade type game.

It does cost money to play on-line but you can get a feel for it with free off-line practice. What I would love to see is something just like this but for Off-road cars.

Check it out it's pretty cool and during our harsh winters around these parts it's really cool since it does give you the ability to "practice" with YOUR radio instead of a joystick or keyboard.
