I recently got into RRE and bought DTM13, WTCC13 and the WTCC14 car pack. I bought them one at a time since if a track or car is duplicated from a previous purchase, you don't pay for it again, which is obviously nice! Plus all of those cars are great fun to drive and its a great selection of tracks
Roadrunner are you attempting the payment with a bank/debit card? Try it through paypal. My bank/credit card denies it each time because it's overseas but if I do it via paypal it goes through just fine.
So I could not get the bulk VRP purchase to work, so I purchased the DTM 92 and European Track packs through the store. I think I paid about $3.50 or so more than I would have. Excited to get going but having some trouble getting the game to recognize my wheel and pedals.
Started here about two months ago and found the following cars to be good starters, competitive without being fiendishly difficult to drive:- 1) DTM 92 Mercedes, 2) Any DTM 2013 car, 3) 2014 ADAC Audi R8, 4) Volvo 240 Turbo (Touring classics), 5) 2013 WTCC Lada Granta, 6) 2013 WTCC BMW 320........just a few from some of the most popular classes that I found fairly forgiving, and far from the only ones, just my pick.
