Make sure to go into options and turn off the brake/steering assists.

They turn back on after every restart of the demo for me. Didn't get to drive the Zonda either, I unlocked it, selected it and when I got in-game I had the GT-R. Restarted the demo and now it's locked again.

While I'm not into track racing games, I actually find this game really enjoyable and playable.

Had to put it in Win XP mode to run without crashing, but plays great.

Not problems with a 360 gamepad, at all.

I just downloaded and tried this out briefly.

You can't change the controls while in car, I hope that's an issue in the demo only.

The cars shake, violently, on flat even track surfaces. I know they want it to feel real, but this isn't like driving at all.

Now, I've never been in an accident, but does your vision go to black and white? I like the blurred vision part, but the nostalgia effect is stupid IMO.

It honestly feels like another sub-par NFS game to be honest. I hope I'm wrong though, I was looking forward to this game.

I agree completely.
Just wasted time downloading this, it's horrible.
I wish Codemasters would come up with a better version of GRiD.
