Eh, whether the game was meant for those things or not, the facebook team have spent a _lot_ of time putting up images of cars from those events.

On the one hand I get that it's a "we want to attract motorsports enthusiasts" - on the other - this practice (cross linking to other events) went up a gear _after_ they said "we want to be the one stop shop for motor-sports".

WRC would require a MASSIVE engine re-write - never going to happen (they'd never see the return).

I don't see why Formula E or DTM couldn't work with the current engine.

And don't forget NASCAR did actually require a specific physics engine re-write - so, no... sorry RR3 was not "meant" for NASCAR.

The point is not that NASCAR is good or bad - the point is that they made wild outlandish claims about it being the gateway to RR3 being all things to all people (a claim they were never going to back up... obviously!) - but instead of "all things" they're not even getting on with giving us some other thing other than NASCAR. And they made NASCAR outlandishly expensive.

Some criticism doesn't mean you hate the game. This is not the binary situation you seem to want to paint. We all have our own ideas of how the game could be better than it is.
