RaceRoom Updated – FR X-90 CUP Available

Sector3 Studios deployed a new update for their RaceRoom Racing Experience title. Besides a healthy list of fixes and improvements for the simulator, this latest update also adds some new DLC content in the form of the Formula RaceRoom 90 car which is an open-wheeler roughly based on a selection of Formula One cars from the ’90s.

The FR 90 takes you back to an era of open-wheel racing that undeniably featured some of the most beautiful designs in motorsports history and the times of raw engine power producing an incredible sound environment, that to this day makes the hair stand up on every true motorsport fan. The FR 90 comes with three different engine types: V8, V10, and V12. Each with its own handling characteristics and of course unique engine note.

The FR X-90 CUP pack DLC is available via the RaceRoom Store for €8.97 including 3 car versions and 34 liveries. The individual cars are available for €3.98. Liveries are €0.29 each.
