Project CARS has been in development for a very long time, and now it's possible to pre-order it from the PCARS website. As of the time of this post, you can only order it on Wii U, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4. You can't order it on PC yet, but the developers say that you'll be able to closer to the release date. PCARS looks pretty good, and I will be picking it up myself on the PC.

I was saying to myself, "I'll pre-order this just for the M1 procar and the Sauber C9."
Then I read:

The only Japanese tuner cars in the whole game are the Evo 6, 9, and 10? And there's potentially a Monaco touge.
I'm a sucker for vintage F1 though, hopefully I get a PC that can handle this shit.

The game is still in development, there's still a chance we can get more JDM cars.

Just be aware that you may not like the handling, Its all over the place. the majority of cars are bad to drive on a wheel, let alone a controller.
My experience with any currently available car is this.
TCS and STM turned on start to accelerate face the opposite direction, or smash into the nearest (or furthest) wall backwards
Project cars handling is so bad, that there is no way I am buying the retail version. I have been fooled long enough by SMS as it is, first shift 2, and now this.
Edit: That is probably a bit of an exaggeration, but there is a lot to be desired with the handling in pcars. At least from my point of view.

Don't forget they may update the handling before the game is released so maybe it would be a good idea to wait until it's out and then look at some reviews of it to see if anyone mentions the problems you've had

I heard the devs are against modding, so i'll probably just stick to looking forward to AC.

That doesn't seem like the developers themselves are saying "no" to mods, but more like how the community sees how it may affect the game in the long run.
Read a bit further, and I found a response from one of the developers:
Like the post states, they want mods, but not hacking.

Huh, if the devs were for the whole time I wonder where the misconception that they despise modding came from.
I guess I can safely be excited for it again!

I will have a video incoming shortly showing a major issue that is very apparent within project cars, and it is to do the the physics and the controller mechanics. They are a complete joke at the moment, and considering most people on a console will be using a ps4 or xbox one controller (depending on the console the end user buys it for. I would say at this moment in time, do not under any circumstances put any money down for Project cars at its full release. Wait for a while, read the reviews, watch videos for the full release, and see if SMS have fixed these issues first. With a month left until full release, I con not get over how bad the games control mechanics and physics still are. They are worse than when I was using my TX wheel with it, and that is saying something!
The video was supposed to be of me testing out a few cars and tracks, and showing off the weather and time of day changes. And I was really looking forward to doing this video for you all, since as far as I am aware, I am the only one on here who has access to project cars at this time. I put my money forward very early on in 2012, and at this moment in time; I have had enough of project cars.
My pc specs:
AMD FX 4300 3.8GHz (overclocked to 4.2 GHZ) MSI 970 Gaming motherboard 2X 500GB samsung spinpoint harddrives in a raid 0 configuration 8gb of DDR3 1600 Corsair Vengeance ram Nvidia GTX 780 3gb GDDR5 graphics card
I was sitting at a very nice and stead 75fps at 1080p with everything maxed out graphically, so I know my pc is handling the game perfectly.
Edit: Video has been removed, as it has served its purpose.

Woah I knew Project CARS was still in development but if it's really releasing this year it looks MASSIVELY behind schedule... like how is that NOT anything other than underdeveloped? I had hopes this game would be an inbetween of Forza/GT and NFS Shift but it's certainly closer to being like the latter.

Don't listen to this guy. He is playing a very old build, has had ZERO input on the forum and had only "invested" 10 euros when he joined. If he had bothered to ask questions on the forum he would not be in this position, but as it is now he will be kicked out for breaching the T&C's.

Here is someone else driving the Evo. Still an early build from August 2013 and an unfinished Willow Springs. Not quite as bad as that guy is showing...

Here's some new info on the tyre model used in Project CARS
Subject: Re: Project CARS Available for Pre-Order (Consoles Only) Thu Oct 16, 2014 6:59 am
For starters, where in the terms and conditions does it state that I, as an investor (of any amount), can not tell people about the broken aspects of this game? And provide video evidence to such. Also, this is the most recent build, and a fresh install; which was downloaded yesterday before I did that video. I have not posted on the WMD forums because I didnt want to be part of the development process. I just wanted to provide SMS with a little bit of cash towards it as an investment. It doesn't matter how much or little I put forward, just that I wanted SMS to make an awesome racing simulation. I check the WMD forums before I start Project cars every time, and I do this to check for new controller settings, and to check see what to expect within the game. This title is due to release in the next month, it should not be in this state at this time. That video of yours only goes to show that SMS have made the game worse, which I have told people plenty of times regarding Project cars. Every update they brake another portion of the game.
If I have broken the T&C, well I dont care at this point. People on this forum know I wouldn't have made that video and given the warning without a bloody good reason.

When you discover a bug like you have done, as a member of a closed community, do you think it might have been better if you had posted it on the forum as a bug report instead of posting on another public forum where the bug wouldn't be reported? That was the whole purpose of WMD in the first place. Not to just bitch about something publicly when you find something wrong.
You would have then discovered it is because you had not deleted your profile since updating! Try it now for yourself...
Here is someone else attempting to flip the Evo after seeing your video. The video is recorded on low with particle effects turned off using an Xbox 360 pad.

It was a 100% fresh install of project cars on my pc since installing windows 8.1 on my system, so I can assure you there wasn't a single Project cars folder on my pc before I installed it fresh yesterday. Also, there is no point posting this on the WMD forums at this point, because more than enough people have started threads about this same issue on that forums; and then been run off the place by tryhards that refuse to accept to fundamental issues with the game. Some people on that forum are downright nasty bastards, and I dont have the resolve to deal with that sort of rubbish.

Please link me to 1 thread that relates to the issue you have. I really don't agree that anyone would be a "nasty bastard" when you are reporting an issue. Yes sometimes the reply might simply be "already reported" but I'm sure you know how large the forum is.
I hear you are attempting again anyway, so I hope the reinstall fixes it for you.
