As some of you already know, I'm a big fan of NASCAR racing sims. However, I love road racing just as much. There is a new racing sim that was released in Europe (or parts of it) last year. It's called GTR. Just some bits and pieces from their site;
100% authentic racing guaranteed!
GTR is the most realistic racing simulation ever. Experience the original FIA GT Championship first-hand on your PC as you pit your skills against over 70 different opponents on all 10 legendary race courses such as Magny-Cours, Barcelona, and Monza. Developed by racing professionals, GTR is the most realistic racing experience ever.
Features:
*Original FIA GT Series cars and courses
*3 playing modes for newcomers, experienced players and simulation pros* *including intense multiplayer action
*Real racing teams featuring over 70 race cars, including the Porsche 911, Viper GTS-R, BMW Z3 M and Ferrari 550 Maranello
*Highly realistic opponent AI giving a total race experience!
*Dynamic weather changes during the race
*Unrestricted game save and reload function
*MOTEC Analysis Software: GTR uses the analysis software used by real racing teams
*Based on real-life FIA GT team telemetry data
*Live Track Technology: course conditions change as the race progresses
*Online: Download additional game content from www.gtr-game.com
I currently play the demo which is very good and it can be easily found on their site. Since there will be no North American release, it is being released via a "world release" this coming week (March 11th). Like I said - GTR has been released already in some parts but the world release will be in english.
I just wanted to pass this along for those who love sim racing and didn't know about GTR. Personally I love the FIA GT racing series and this sim really gets close to being the real thing.
