The drifting left is how the cars are set up. Since they go around tedious ovals all day, just turning left they set the car up to, in it's natural state to want to turn left (adjusting steering settings, camber, caster plus many tyre variables) so it's not just you, it's how it's supposed to be.

I played the demo and I have to say I thought it was laughably bad. The graphics are nothing new at all (typical EA). The driving model is terrible, the cars seem to have too much inertia and take alot of work to turn from their "slightly-left" state. Also, if you do get the car a little out of shape, there is no dynamic physics response to most of your steering or throttle inputs...it's just into the wall you go. The sounds boring but that is what can be said of a 7 litre V8. The GUI is uninspiring and I can hedge a bat it's teh same one from the PS2/Xbox game.

Overall it just seems like a simple port from PS2 with minor graphical updates but what else? I have no idea...

Not a buyer, that's for sure.
