Race 07 is the sequel to SimBin's acclaimed racing simulator Race. As its predecessor, Race 07 includes seasons 06 and 07 from FIA's touring car championship, the WTCC. However, unlike its predecessor, Race 07 is not only a touring car game. Besides having all the cars and makes from the WTCC, even some from 1987, race has a huge number of cars. It has WTCC Extreme version of car, the Mini Cooper S and the Caterham car. Race 07 also breaks its previous mods and it includes two single seater, a F-3000 Lola car and a Formula BMW. As well as the popular British cars, the Radical SR3 and SR4. The game also includes 15 tracks, 14 of them from the WTCC calendar, and several different layouts for the tracks. The single player mode of this game is great, however the multi player is also excellent. There are already several championships, including a World Championship based on this game. The physics, as in any SimBin game, are excellent, and they got a lot of racing input from real WTCC drivers. The only downside is that this game has really steep system requirements for it to run with full graphic modes. But if you are looking for a great racing game with lots of support, Race 07 is an excellent choice.
