Been driving around a lot in Assetto Corsa recently, but I went back to pCars after installing a new video card to see how it runs and to check out the latest updates; here are some uneditted screenshots from the latest build:

McLaren MP4-12C at Silverstone:

Way too wide through Copse corner:

And a new addition, the huge Mercedes-Benz AMG 300SEL 6.8 'Rote Sau' (Red Pig) at Imola. The real thing drove to the podium in the 1971 Spa 24 hour race.

This thing loves oversteer!:

Some of the screen shots look so real... too real. Is it a sim or is it real life? That line is getting really blurred with the newest generation of simulations.

Those are outstanding shots. :applause:

So out of the two sims which do you prefer, of course AC is still being developed so maybe an unfair question.

Both pCars and AC are still pretty much WIP, so it is hard to compare, especially since both companies release content in different ways. AC only gives major updates, but with new stuff it all seems to work fine. pCars has updates twice a week, and sometimes the new content is unfinished. Cars with basic interiors and physics, tracks with major holes in the surface etc.. The cars above were fun to drive, but I tried a new Pagani Zonda roadster too and it would spin out in every corner, even the really slow ones.

When both are finished, pCars will probably have more content, look better but also be heavier on your computer than AC. Right now AC is the better driving sim for me, it feels more natural to drive.

Dave, I have no idea where the track is, or if it's even real.. It is just called 'California highway'.

According to the website they have reached their funding goals and are no longer accepting new members.

ok,but will it ever be "for sale"? to the masses or is it like a private sim?

It should be ready by the end of this year, Dave.

Caterham R500 at Anhalt (Oschersleben), a great car to slide around the track!:

Fun car to drive around the old Nurburgring!

The R8 LMS:

New cars pouring in now, like the Mercedes A45 AMG:

Group 5 BMW 320 Turbo; this thing is just plain scary!:

And the Mk1 Ford Escort 1600, slow on the straights but a lot of oversteer through every corner:
