I76 is one of those games that still amaze me, for several reasons. I'll only mention one, because that's the single feature I've been missing in ALL other racing games: The automatic gearbox actually feels real. It's not just a matter of revving up to the max and then shift into the next gear, instead like in real life shifting very much depends on how much you step on the accel-pedal. The lesser you step on it, the earlier the auto gear box will shift up.
God, I love it.
