It holds up very well. Just started playing it again a couple of weeks ago and it is a LOT of fun. Awesome sounds, raceable AI and good handling with ffb that communicates well with my Simucube 2 Pro.
I let Race 07 installed to make a series of video reviews of it and for its ffb that I consider to be the best car feel still today. Its amazing, cause you dont have to take hours to test and tweek it. Once you set the strenght you are redy to go and it communicate so well. What modern sim do you compare to it? Ive bein trying a lot of title and even with ac or rf2 I cant feel the same ffb responsiveness.
@@thegrigs try AMS 1. FFB and track surface physics just on next level, it's also has better color gamma and graphics overall and some laser scanned tracks (brands hatch, imola, oulton park, spielberg). But race07 is very good game for it's time.
I always loved the little stuff in Race '07, like in multiplayer when you could roll out of the garage to your buddy's garage and he can see you waiting. Doing burnouts and doughnuts while you're waiting for him to tune his car....lol. Handling in this game was way ahead of its time, probably better than most today really. Old muscle cars were totally predictable and you could really throw 'em around just like the real thing.
@01:40 Race Pro on the back of the car. 😎 Race Pro being the Xbox 360 version of this game... The handling and racing of the console version is just as superb as it ever was for both control pad and wheel play. The DLC is still available at the time of posting, however the Xbox 360 store closes around June/July 2024.
I just reinstalled this game (and DLCs) last week. The only two really drawbacks are the FFB (there were a drive.. "Leo's FFB" if not wrong, but couldn't find it) and the menus (that are horrible). For single playing, it still is amazing (better than ACC and AMS2, anyway). Had played a lot of it back in the day, but only online and with the Formula BMW. After some time, found it not so good for MP (bad netcode and a sht aero/suspension exploit that is inherent from this engine and still persist even with rF2), but didn't experienced the singleplayer until now.
Still holds up well today. They removed the multi-player server, so to play against others you'll need to setup a VPN network of some sort. There is nothing wrong with Race07, and they should have kept the multi-player server online..
Don’t suppose you’ve had success in setting up via vpn? I’m having trouble with a friend crashing upon connecting to my server and we can’t find anything anywhere to help :(
@@garagemischief Hello. I've fettled with a VPN tool called Radmin, which seems to work, is very simnple to use and setup. I'm happy to help you test, feel free to lemme know! I'm un the UK so weekday evenings or weekend..

Are the servers still alive?
This is hands down my favourite sim racing game of all time. I even own Race pro on the xbox 360 great simulators
One of my favourite sim games, so glad steam had it with all the dlc. Get to relive all the Super touring from the 90s 😍
The driving in this game is fantastic, better than many modern titles.

Great track and car combo! Formal request for a GTR2 video next ;)
Definitely gonna do that! I love GTR2!
I just put this back on today after finding a great texture mod. Then I put reshade on just to give it the finishing touch. Cheers

Great race.This game has an AI much better than some actual racing games like GT7...
Race07 and rbr is mine childhood games
so much memory in this game 😄
Great vd, man. Thx, m8 !
Hi, I'm playing with it these days too...were you able to eliminate or reduce the understeer with a custom set up?
Race07 is still a great sim!
I was wondering: is it still possible to download the car setup files from some place in the internet? Thanks!
GTR 2 is much better Race07 is bad copy of sim racing with mods who not work and track very poor GTR 2 still have much more mods then Race 07.
Let's organize an online league. Retro league)))
I can't find the function to save during a race
Even with the daftness of an old game and cars feeling a little too lineant (not like I'd know if that's correct or not) it's still a great game!
