One of Ferris Bueller's Friend's Dad's Cars is For Sale!

If you have a cool $125k sitting around, this is your opportunity to look like a multi-millionaire! The real 250 GT California Spyder would set you back about $7,000,000, so this car is a steal! Recreated in such accurate detail, the cars builder was given a cease and desist letter by Ferrari, and only 11 cars were ever made! This is a two owner car, and I sure wish I had the cash to pick it up!

Automation Has Finally Come to Steam!!

I've been playing Automation for a long time... since before build 199, when I uploaded my very first Automation video to YouTube. The game has undergone a lot of changes since then, but all of them positive! Back when I started playing, you only had an engine builder, and not even that many options! You had I4, and V8, that's it. No turbo's, no cars, nothing. I still loved the game then.

I've had the opportunity to see the game grow from that, to having turbochargers, to having a rudimentary chassis builder, to having an advanced car builder, to being released on Steam as a fully featured car engineering simulator!

Sure, there's still a lot that isn't available yet, the tycoon side of the game is just not starting to be developed, but I've already got my moneys worth from the game! I've played it probably hundreds of hours before it even got on Steam, and I'll be sure to play it hundreds more as it is developed even further!

This is an Early Access title you can trust. It has been faithfully developed for over two years now, and the updates are coming regularly, with awesome results every time! This might never be a blockbuster game, but for those of us who dream of building our own cars, it is a godsend.

If you, like me, has wished for a game where you could design your own car, or a modern version of the old game Detroit, then it is your civic duty to buy this game and support it! Despite this not being a cash cow genre, the developers have dedicated their lives to making this game a success, and they deserve to prosper for their efforts! They are supporting our dreams to be creative, so we should support them!

PKW Racing on Watkins Glen in Formula Gulf on Wet Tires!!

This is a recording of the first PKW Racing event of the new year! We have played some other games, but this was our first run in Project CARS of the year!

I was able to win this race, although there was some trouble after a couple laps. I kind of felt bad starting in first place, but we didn't have a qualifying run so luck of the draw put me there.

Not sure why we were running on wet tires, must be some kind of bug in this current build. It was pretty crazy though! The tires were running super hot pretty much the whole race, and it was interesting at times to keep the car on the road! Lots of down force helped, though.

It was a close race! Paulbfc and Kamalski were running with me, along with some AI at roughly 60%. I think I accidentally bumped Kamalski off the road towards the end of the race, but until then he was right there with us! Could have been a different result if it weren't for my blunder. Paulbfc was less than a second behind me when we crossed the finish line. It was an awesome race! Very aggressive, but mostly clean.

Blowing Up an Aston V12 Vantage GT3!!!

I really was driving like a complete hooligan during this race, bumping the walls, bumping other cars, way too aggressive for such a tight track. I shouldn't have been so surprised when my engine blew up. After the first couple laps, I had mostly secured myself 7th place, and toned it back a bit, but not before nudging the wall one last time.

My temperature started immediately rising, I made it around almost exactly one more lap, and at 143 degrees, my car gave out. You can see the external damage much better in the spectator view.

Moral of the story, don't drive crazy, and watch your gauges!

It's True, Project CARS was Delayed Till April 2nd

Yes, it's true, Project CARS has been delayed again, as can be seen in the link below, but stress not! The delay is only an additional two weeks! You could use this time to learn how to ride a bicycle, take knitting classes, learn a foreign language, get a girlfriend, and feel sorry for people like me who are already enslaved to the goodness that is Project CARS.

So consider this extra two weeks development time a gift! Your life will no longer be your own on April 2nd. ;)

Project CARS - Swapping Drivers During Pit Stops & Blowing Up an Engine!

Here are a few interesting video's I've made in the past week or so, they maybe of interest to you! The first demonstrates the ability to swap drivers during a pit stop, this will be useful in the very long races, such as 24 Hours of Le Mans. The second video, I blow up the engine of an Aston Martin... basically just demonstrating that the game does not tolerate wreckless driving. Finally, I've made a new preview of all the camera's in the game. Enjoy!
