Dirt is awesome, its a nice mix between simulation/arcade driving.

GTR2 is fun, but its ultra-simulation, I couldn't really get into it. Toca race driver 3 is pretty simulationish, but its more forgiving than GTR2.

Trackmania is really fun if you want purely arcade driving.

It is definitely a very unappreciated game, probably just because it's not well marketed in the US. You could pick it up for $9.99 some places, but likely $19.99 at the local store. And Fry's might be the only place that has it.

And, your 7600GT would play FO2 on the highest settings no problem, which it looks great. Dirt on the other hand, it would have trouble with. You'd be lucky to run decent FPS at 800x600 on low. But you are getting a new card, so I guess that's kind of null... :P

Anyway, trust me, Flatout 2 is a must-have racer game.

I agree with you 100% all the way about Flatout2. I love that game and still play it all the time. I always go back to the derbys....
