I'm interested in this, Mouser, but the link's not working for me...  Can you check it on your side?

website is down here too, though google shows that the url is correct.
maybe the intelligent design folks saw my link and took legal action against it :)
should be back up soon i expect.

here's the review of it:

It looks really interesting, but I just realised that having been given Civilization IV for Christmas, my gaming time is probably tied up for, oh, the next ten years or so...  This is my first foray into this kind of sim, having spent many hours over the last two years playing TOCA Race Driver 2, Colin McRae 2 and 2005, and Richard Burns Rally.  There's an interesting program on British television tonight, testing someone's experience of car games by putting him into a real car (actually, we already know him to be an experienced driver, but it'll be interesting nonetheless).
