I heard it's pretty graphics card heavy but I think my card could handle it, you think? Also, is there a demo available for download somewhere?

Dirt is pretty fun. I have the demo on my PS3. I'm sure it's a lot better on your setup.

Actuallt not really. All you do is take apart a usb gamepad and wire up buttons and switches to the contacts. Very easy! Or if you want a handbrake you can take apart a joystick and use the pot for the handbrake.
