    Whilst I appreciate the free weekend. How do you go ahead and buy something now if I want to? I was planning on purchasing Macau to add to a custom championship and the store won't let me purchase it! That's fine but in my custom championship I may not get to Macau this weekend. I also planned on picking up the ADAC 2013 cars. I'm not being fussy I'd just like to buy them now as I intended to anyways. Thanks!

    Thanks so much for this Sector 3. It's far better to me to be able to test drive cars on tracks I'm familiar with. Of the few I didn't own, I'm definitely picking up 3 on Monday. One problem though and if someone else can let me know if this happens for them. The BMW 635 in the Touring Classics when test driven acts like the pit limiter is on for it. I made sure it was off and tried it on 3 tracks (Hockenheim, Nurburginring, and Mid Ohio and each time I couldn't get past 80mph or so.

    Someone was complaining about the same thing on the steam forum. I think they were using a controller or the keyboard. Sounded the the drive train elasticity was a bit 'off' for that car

    Thats the only one I've had issue with. I've tried different tracks and restarting and still the same issue.

    I noticed this recently. It turns out that it's down to which realism setting you use. Anything other than "get real" and the car is broken. Apparently they're aware and it's on the to-do list.

    From what I have seen it seems to be tc related.In low gears 1st or 2nd with tc on it seems like the engine is cutting.Dont know if its intentional but it certainly needs to be looked.

    Closing in on the all time peak, so I guess there is a greater crowd than ordinary. :)

    Unfortunately I don't know if I will make it to the action this weekend.. .
    But let's hope we will keep some of the new players after the weekend!!

    A suggestion, Sector3: If people really do buy more content as a result of the free weekend, put some of the profits into improving your infrastructure. Please. Maybe then I'll be able to start the game I PAID for and use the content I PAID for, rather than get endless Server 500 errors. Thank you.

    People,take a look at your antiviruses if you are having errors.Personally using the 360 for some weird reason it flags the exe everytime there is an update and blocks it causing a 503 error.So, check if you have something similar and restore files or check steam integrity.

    Since the beginning of the free weekend, it is impossible to play offline against the AI. When the race begins, I appear in a car that is not mine (always the first), the race begins and I can not do anything but watch.
