Bsimracing Sim Racing Resources and News for the racing enthousiast.
Sector3 Studios has deployed a new update for RaceRoom Racing Experience, and released some brand new content in the form of the Opel Astra TCR touring car.
The Touring Car Racing (TCR) series offers an ideal format for ambitious private teams who want to compete in exciting, top-class, yet affordable motorsport.
Because TCR technical regulations require close-to-production specification racing cars, the Opel Astra TCR is based on a 5 doors Opel Astra K and is powered by a 1998 cc Turbocharged 4-cylinder inline engine that delivers 340hp at 6200 rpm and 420 Nm maximum torque. A sequential, 6-speed racing transmission delivers power to the front wheels. The Astra TCR reaches a top speed of 250 km/h.
The Opel Astra TCR is available via the official RaceRoom Store for €3.98. The Opel Astra TCR livery pack including 14 liveries is available for €6.58.
The core RaceRoom Racing Experience racing simulator is free for all and can be installed from this Steam link. Commercial add-ons are available in the RaceRoom Store.
