Yep! I'd have to go with rally masters as well!

They're all fine games (I haven't got the full Rally Masters yet, but will very soon). CMR is the best if you have a lower-spec computer. I've seen it run quite happily on a P200 with a Voodoo1. It's definitely fun rather than realistic - it's nice throwing the cars around. Rally Championship (as it's called, boringly, in the UK) is the most realistic. Rule One here: do *not* judge the game on the basis of the demo. The full game is improved out of all proportion. There are irritating features (long load times, unrealistic damage), but the graphics are incredible and it has the best sense of challenge. Rally Masters sounds like it might supersede CMR for the "fun blast" crown. As I've only played the demo, I can't be sure, but it's certainly a well put together game. IMO, the nearest in fell to GPL is RC. The sense of achievement when you finish the Pirelli Rally for the first time is matched only by GPL. -- David.

Rally Masters, if only by way of making judgement from the three games demos... Try them out for yourself!
