About the Game
Colin McRae is no longer with Ford and Nicky Grist is no longer Colin’s co-driver. Things have moved on in the rally-driving world, as they have with this, the fourth title in the series. This time players are in the vehicle of their choice. While the game features improved graphics over the older titles in the series the biggest improvement is the handling in the game, which is now based on real-world physics.
