Wow, free DLC from EA? Pat on the back to them for that one, although I still would have bought it if it was for purchase.

The controls were pretty bad everyone was scrambling when it first came out to figure out the right steering settings to make the cars drivable and it required patches to the physics models from an outside source to make the cars decent. I just didn't care for it I guess.

I don't mind if I need Realmod, however, did they patch it enough so that the game isn't "ZOMG NO NVIDIA CARD MUST DROP FPS TO 20?"
