Rally and Trailblazer are honestly the exact same thing. The only difference is the co-pilot calling out the turns.

I like those modes the best as well.

My picks are probably about the same as TIME's, with the exception of the fact that I'm not quite as negative about the trucks and buggies. I will agree they are easy to lose control of, but that is part of the fun to me...

I'm not sure if all of these modes are available online or not, but a couple that I haven't seen mentioned are the Last Man Standing events where the last person gets eliminated every 20 seconds. That one is probably my least favorite. And also the Gate Crasher events, also not a favorite of mine.

I don't mind the Truck races. I'm with Stoney in using the Hummer. It's the Buggies I don't really like because I have trouble contolling them.

I don't even know if there is a gate crasher or last man mode for multiplayer. I'll have to chaeck that out. I think the last man might actually be interesting in a Live race especially if we spiced it up with a Mad Max rules approach.

I'm up for anything... lol

Especially anything that allows me to bump and nudge other racers.

I'm used to playing with the AI, so I normally play that way... lol

I love the LA tracks, especially the first one. Also the track, I forget the location, that has the "sprint" in the title.

This game could get hairy on league racing. There will be some bumping and crashing, hopefully no one gets too upset with some bumping and grinding.

we can always turn the damage off.

it won't bother me either way.

i'll only be able to cause trouble in the first turn, after that i won't see you guys again... (and not because i'll be out in front) lol

It doesn't matter to me either, I kind of like the collisions for races like this.

I need to practice more on rally, I get stuck on rally cross and baja. I like Ralisport2 better for point to point races.

i don't know if you can even turn off the collisions, but i know that you can turn off the damage so it doesn't affect your car other than visually.
