Who would have thought that there would be a game out for PC
solely on V8 Racing...? Well considering the game was delayed
to be released on two occasions, it's amazing that it's actually
out now!
With the top teams included, stacks of tracks, life-like damage
and mind-boggling graphics, V8 challenge is the sock to put in
one's mouth. The car setup is accurate and has great dynamic weather
effects, giving you a feel and taste of what the real drivers
face whenever they muscle their way around the circuits!
The makers of this game seriously did not fool around. Take a
look at a few behind the scene renders...
As you can see they have actually taken scenery from around the
tracks, modelled them and included them in the game, making it
ultimate reality. (Of course these will be a blur when wizzing
around that track at 240km/h)
The following contains all the teams that are in V8 Challenge...
Castrol Perkins Racing
Russel Ingall
Larry Perkins
Briggs Motorsport
Simon Wills
Max Wilson
Tony Longhurst
Holden Racing Team
#1 - Mark Skaife
#2 - Jason Bright
#02 - Rick Kelly
KMart Racing Team
#15 - Todd Kelly
#51 - Greg Murphy

And if that's not all to make your day, you can download these
skins to wrap around your car and be the envy of all your friends.
I have played this game at a mates place, it seriously kicks the
pants of yourself
