I'm with you Grant! I put RBR on every time that I get a chance. I bought it for $40 NEW at EB and its the best game I have! Listen to this man he knows what he's talking about! 
This is what I posted over at OzCelica a few months ago:

For those of you that haven't played this game I know what you are thinking... Its relatively unknown, its probably just another dud.
How very wrong could you be! I can't put this game down. I bought it from EB for $39.95 ( ) after playing it only briefly on my brothers PS2, now just about every time I'm bored at home I put it on to drive the tarmac stages, it feels like I'm in Targa Tasmania.
If you are big on sim games like me, this is the only choice for a good rally-esque driving game... I guess its comparable to the original V-Rally in a way that it feels unique with its unrivalled physics. I've yet to play another point-to-point driving sim that even comes close to RBR. You find yourself playing it over and over, on one end of the scale if you drive well, you'll find yourself smiling from ear-to-ear, but on the other hand, if you F#@K up big, you'll still find yourself smiling from ear-to-ear thanks to the spectacular physics engine. Its a real art form to get through a stage neatly and you'll find that you keep going back to watch the replay and see what corners you perfected.
Anyone who's tried this game, tell me what you think, anyone that hasnt tried it, go away and have a crack somewhere and tell me what you think too. I don't reckon anyone will be disappointed. Just a word of warning, its not like Need For Speed Underground and Burnout its about simulating real-life and your not going to be able to 'pimp' out your ride or put NOS on your beast, however you will be able to adjust everything such as tire pressure, camber, ride height, gear ratios and EVERYTHING else.
