That kind of stuff completely takes me out of the game, which is unfortunate because the game has so much other good stuff in it.

As someone who doesnt follow racing in real life beyond the triple crown, and as such dont know that those #s are apparently way off, it doesnt bother me at all. Since that appears to be the big complaint i hear about SO3 in comparison to Racing Breed, im strongly leaning to purchasing SO3. If someone can tell me other areas RB is better, id love to hear. But so far all i have heared is that SO3's times are a bit off, which i can live with as long as its universal for all horses and not just races i watch.
