Very little on my system. At 1280X1024 I get a 4-5fps hit in rain with most
video at high or max levels. 3.6ghz EM64T Intel and ATI X850 PCIE graphics.
All in all GTR2 is about as demanding as GTL on my system. I always get this
stuttering when pulling out of the garage in GTR, GTR2 and GTL..........
Other than that all is, for the most part, very smooth.
