Fantastic Racing Simulator, with a very active modding community and some very good external apps - RSR Live Timing for example is a must.

Game can still be quite temperamental with unexplained fatal crashing and the online multi-player is still missing many elements, such as unsatisfying results screen.

However the positives far outweigh the negatives and this is a must buy for any race fan and a game I expect to still be enjoying far beyond the 1000 hour mark.

Edit:
As a little addition - I think it is only fair to say that the game has become considerably more stable and much less likely to crash out in recent updates.

Much effort has also been made in streamlining the online multiplayer experience, which ran like a bit of a dog in the earlier releases, but which now holds a good average and perfectly adequate frame rate with 20+ online players participating.
