@ComicPenius I believe physics are on par with GT 3 (my favorite feel for sim on console) but it is much more rewarding gameplay as you level up and are rewarded for so many things. I.E. if you race one manufacture auto and get to level 5 affinity (about 10 good races) you get all parts upgrades for free for that manufacture on any auto you purchase. There is bonus money and xp everywhere you turn. It is built for taking away the "Grind" feeling as everything unlocks fast!

@fighting17chicago Is Forza 4 worth buying if physics are the main concern? I quite like the physics in GT5 but the gameplay is a bit of a grind.

tamiya suck! low quality crap! they get hammered in the racing too!!!

I own both Forza 4 and GT5. I've owned every iteration of both simulators on all platforms starting with GT1 on PS1. GT has held the marker for a long time on the simulation side, but happily Forza has taken on the community side and made FM4 the primer console multi-player game. GT5 however still has GT Academy going for it so I shall not set either down for a long time! I hope the battle turns into DLC battles!

Hey Darin/Shaun do you know whether the fanatec csr elite pedals can be inverted right out of the box because I can't find the inversion kit anywhere
