Amazing physics, graphics and presentation.. Fully customizable vehicles. This is pure racing as good as it gets. GTR had a tough learning curve but GTR2 is much improved and newbies as well as pros will enjoy this game to the fullest. Forget about all the other racing games on the market. This is the real thing. I would also highly recommend 'RACE-WTCC GAME' downloadable via STEAM to the fans of this genre(not in retail stores yet). That one enables you to play touring championship that features slower cars but just as good. If you really wanna get into the action you should get the best racing wheel you can afford (G25 from Logitech my personal favorite). It is a steal at $19.99. My only complaint would be the clutch option does not work %100 accurate. You can still switch gears without the clutch even if you enable this option. Other than that GTR2 RULES...

I've had this car for a couple weeks now and wanted to put it through it's paces before leaving a review, upon the first box opening, I was floored at how feature filled this car is! As someone who hasn't been in hobbyclass RC for about 5 years, I remember when I had to pay $200+ for a Traxxas (cheapest brand you could get at the time) Stampede with a mechanical speed control, Ready-to-Run, with one battery and a charger. This little car? $119.00.

-Remember the days when you had to buy different radio crystals to run with your friends? Not anymore! Thanks to the new radio technology, you can run a bunch of these immediately out of the box without messing with additional crystals.

-Throttle adjustment on the controller. When I was a kid, I had tons of "toy" R/C cars because I didn't have the skills needed to drive the hobbyclass ones at speed, this led to my parents buying tons more R/C cars as I got older. With this controller, I can dial the car down enough for my 4yr old nephew to drive it. I wish I could've captured the look on his face when he got to drive Uncle Rob's race car. Priceless

-Durability. Just this past weekend I had the car running around a large piece of land at our 2nd home, the car had no problem slicing through wet fresh cut grass, mulched leaves, sticks and other debris. The biggest debris of all? My brother's great dane though the car was a squirrel and gave chase, he eventually caught the car as the battery lost it's juice and sank his teeth in. The lexan body cracked a little bit on the roof, and there are some tooth holes in the side, but we continue to run the around (away from the Great Dane this time) all weekend long.

Bottom Line: If you're new to Hobbyclass R/C, this is a great way to get started. Your age doesn't matter (with the ability to dial down the throttle), I will be buying one of these for my nephew so he and I can enjoy them together.

If you're returning to Hobbyclass R/C, like me, I've been wanting to get back into R/C for a long time, but with all of kits out there and with all the new pricey technology, shopping for one can be overwhelming (not to mention costly) if you don't have the right advice. This is a great way to rejoin the hobby and not kill your wallet. This one is the first in my fleet as exceed has bunches of cars and trucks both gas and electric powered. While I can't speak for those, I can speak for this little rally car. What an absolute blast!

Still awesome. I can't believe how well this game still holds up.

Tons of cars, tracks, and customization options. The Force feedback while using the Logitech driving force pro is quite impressive as well. Brings me back to 8th grade. haha. Can't wait for GT7.

Love me some Magnaflow. I've installed these systems on two of my 3 vehicles so far and really like the sound.

system looks really nice mounted on motor.  I have several nice comments from my gearhead friends and a few have already ordered a system for their cars.  every part was  a perfect fit and I was able to use my tall valve covers even though the instructions said I could not. I have summit tall valve covers that have a slanted front and you can use the regular ac compressor. .i would recommend the purchase to anyone that wants a really nice system for their vehicle and the next hotrod I build will have this on the front.

Its an amazing system for those who want a reasonably price gaming laptop.  Outstanding video, especially through HDMI to my 27" monitor and its own LCD has a great picture as well.  I haven't had any problems playing Civilization V or Empire/Shogun Total War on this system either, temps haven't gone over 80C on the CPU.  Yet, I am a little worried about the current temp levels to add in any other more graphics intensive games to the system.  I have been seeing as high so far as 98C on the CPU while running handbrake, although the cooler boost keeps it under the 100C point.  Makes me a little worried on the life expectancy of this system.

Once you get past the temps, though.  This is a great portable gaming system for a lot of my strategy games.  It will serve well as a secondary system as well, although I am pulling handbrake of it and will let my media server do all that work as the i3-3225 and the i7-4770MQ run similar run times.  Of course, I have only had this system for a day and I will continue to test and update as I continue to play with it....Windows 8 is a royal PITA though!  I wonder how well she will run with a 500GB Samsung 840 to replace to 750GB HD in the system.  Oh, if you check MSI's website they do have drivers for Windows 7 on this system.  Which is nice to know.

Update (30July2013):

Alright, ran Windows Update...after finally finding the bloody thing.  Once I did that the Intel video kicked in.  Apparently, the system had the 765M running at all time and that increased the temps considerably.  Now it idles between 50C and 60C unless you use certain programs and then the 765M kicks in.  Much nicer, doesn't worry me as much now.  Removed a lot of the trial software (Norton Virus, WinZip, PowerDVD), and installed my preferred software (Malwarebytes, MSE, 7-Zip, and TotalMedia Theatre).  Winzip/PowerDVD are a PITA to uninstall, need to work through that.  Played some Sims3, Empire Total War, and Civ V, the 765M will kick in for those games and keeps the CPU in 80's, while the GPU will rarely get over 75C.  Good cooling on the GPU, CPU still needs a lot of work.

The PS3 is an excellent gaming system + you get BluRay 1080P capabilities.  The MotorStorm Pack is excellent and will keep you hooked on trying to get passed each race with all different types of vehicles.  The negatives would be that at $499.99 it does not come with an HDMI or compatible AV cable for HD viewing.  For the price of the system you get the game, the system, and a standard cable (non-HD).

Fast, smooth, tuff. I have a 8000kv castle creations motor and esc in mine and she handles it great. FAST!  Haven't broken anything yet. Make sure you go online and get the recommended shims for the diff. I also had to shave it down in a couple of spots with my exacto to keep it from rubbing. Do not let this keep you from getting this kit! It's absolutely worth it. I wish they made an on road version.  I bought a pre-painted body because I didn't want to mess with painting my own, so it came together in a weekend. It's a great kit.
Update:  Almost 3 months of hard bashing later and she is even faster and smoother as she's broken in. I have broken ZERO components so far and I've been running 3s lipo on my castle system. INSANE speed.  Best $ I've spent on RC this year!

I have had mine over a year now. First, in a 98 nissan altima with a 100 amp alternator, 0 ga big 3 upgrade, a 5500 watt Bamf powering a champion series 12" dual 2 ohm wired to 1 ohm in a sealed box, a power acoustik t-1920 to two 12" also in sealed box(for better control of bass freq) and a lanzar 2000 watt amp to a pair of 6" rear deck speakers.... i drove my car all over nyc with ppl dancing around my nissan WHENEVER i stopped at a light, and i've had to pop my trunk to provide the sound system for numerous bbq's and park functions. people had such a hard time believing that so much sound came from such a small car that i had to deflect numerous offers to buy it.... finally, the offer came that i couldn't resist. i sold the car and was able to keep the system.....
 Now, in England, i bought a Rover 620 Si. the alternator is only 85 amp and i was worried it might not hold up, so i started with just the bamf. after glorious sounding deep reggae bass pumped for hours without any headlight flicker... i figured to add the t-1920...again, i have three 12" subs making every single car alarm of every car i pass go off... turn it up hard... i can just start to see some light flicker.
I don't know why all the haters try throwing so much crap out there about capacitors... and i really don't care. im guessing they are either just full of bologna, or they simply don't know what they are doing... all i know is what works and what poops the bed. Believe me, after 26 years of hooking up car audio systems,... i can tell you plenty of stuff that poops...
 This product definitely does its duty. it is well worth the money for those who really want power out of a sound system. you couldn't pay me enough to part with mine.

Too awesome of a setup! I've mounted it on several rigs, 2 and 3 wheels. ALL AWESOME, Lightfoot Ranger with one of these is pure joy! Trikes as well. light and powerful, quick and easy setup for any monkey with a few tools. I've submerged it in creek crossings and had wildlife short it's wires, Costumer service at T.Y.R.O. EV is unmatched by todays standard. Awesome folks with an awesome product, get out and ride! no excuses!! 'Merica

This truck is fast, i mean wheel burning, ass squating, 2 wheels in the air fast! For the price you can't go wrong. I ordered this truck, an extra battery (25C Zippy 4000) and a metal spur gear as precaution since the reviews stated the stock would strip. Here I am about 3 months later of hard driving, street screamin, big air jumpin and overall extreme racing and have yet to replace 1 part. I haven't even had to put the spare metal gear in yet. Take it from me, an avg person who really enjoys rc trucks, you can't go wrong buying this truck! Pure enjoyment every time I get to let her loose!

This is what the PC Master Race is all about! This thing is amazing. These blazing fast cards can take anything thrown at them. Not only that, but the temperatures?? BEAUTIFUL! You may say "Ugh, why get Hybrids?". I got these Hybrids because they look amazing, run fantastic, have amazing temperatures and the best part of it all is that it doesn't require the hassle and up-keep of a custom loop!

I have two of these in my system running with a 3440x1440 monitor. I pretty much max out every single game except AA (Cause you know, higher resolution) and I rarely if ever go above 55C. I usually hover around 50C with my second card in the high 40s. The price is amazing on these too right now, so grab 'em while you can!

I have been hearing of 1st generation XBOX 360 buyers having overheating problems with their systems!  I play mine frequently and began to wonder if I may have this problem in the near the future!  My system is keep in an entertainment center, so most likely the heat will build in such a small area.  I purchased this item because in my book prevention is the key!  You have just shelled out $400 plus dollars for a game system why not pay $20 more and keep it cooler?

The fan is easy to install.  It took about 2 minutes!  Well, the first game I played with it was the Outfit.  Five minutes later, my 360 started to flash red on the ring of light on the front of the system!  I turned it off and tried again.  It did the same thing.  I then turn off the system and tried it again the next day!

Well, I do not know what happened but it has not occured since then!  Maybe the system had to 'adjust' to the fan on the back of it.  It is louder with it on but hey with all of the sounds from my 5.1 surround system, it does not matter me one bit!  I still give this product 5 STARS!!!!
