Racer is a free cross-platform car simulation project (for non-commercial use), using professional car physics to achieve a realistic feeling and an excellent render engine for graphical realism. Cars, tracks and such can be created relatively easy (compared to other, more closed, driving simulations). The 3D, physics and other file formats are documented. Editors and support programs are also available to get a very customizable and expandable simulator. OpenGL is used for rendering.
Requirements
PPC / Intel, Mac OS X 10.5 or later.

Some cars are great and others hopeless and the same goes for tracks. It seems better to go for new tracks and cars as they are optimised for newer versions.
It also networks nicely with a PC I have, but again you need to muck around with the ini files.
It is quite realistic and Rudd has done a great job.

It does have those blasted .ini files, but once you get past them it's a very functional "game" (again, simulator really).
I really like it!

As said before you have to edit the blasted .ini files just to change the screen resolution.
The graphics are okay but what good are they if you car won't run after a few minutes (for some reason it maybes "blows" the engine after a few minutes/wipe-out).
I don't want to work at trying to play a game to relax!!!

You have to edit these cursed "ini" files to change something as basic as the monitor resolution the games uses.
How do I change controller settings? How do I make the car do in reverse if I hit a wall dead on?
Maybe they'll have it fixed up in a few years.

Overall, if you have processing power to burn, I recommend it. For anything with a single processor, though, it's likely to be too slow to play :-(.

sorry I writ these so game programers know how potental downloaders feel
A great app, fun to play, and free! Good graphics, runs great on my 450 dual G4 with Radeon 9000 Pro. It never locks up, but a couple cars do cause the program to quit. Fun, runs good, and free, I think this is a keeper.
