Assetto Corsa PC Version Update v1.8.1 Deployed

A few days ago, Kunos Simulazioni released Build v1.8 and the TRIPL3 pack DLC for their Assetto Corsa racing simulator. As with every new release, there is always the possibility of minor glitches or bugs sneaking in, that have a direct effect on the gaming experience.

Ever since day one, the Kunos Simulazioni development team have been very efficient in ironing out small issues that come with any major update. Today, a new patch was rolled out on Steam, bringing the Assetto Corsa PC version number to 1.8.1.
