Today, Project CARS continues its programme of continual updates and fresh content delivery today with its first Track Expansion featuring New Zealand’s Ruapuna Park circuit and three iconic Audi racing cars.

Comprising of five unique layouts, Ruapuna Park International Raceway is New Zealand's premier motor racing facility, located 13 kilometers west of Christchurch, New Zealand.
Hosting some of New Zealand's most exciting racing events, including the prestigious Lady Wigram Trophy and an annual round of the New Zealand V8s series, the track's main 3.3 kilometer layout runs in an anti-clockwise direction and its challenging layout incorporates many fast sweeping corners that reward smooth and precise drivers.

With the Audi R18 e-tron Quattro, six-time American Le Mans Series winner Audi R8 LMP900, and 1989 Audi 90 IMSA GTO rounding out this expansion, all players will additionally be able to get behind the wheel of the coveted and limited run Audi A1 Quattro with delivery of their second Free Car.

And as if that wasn’t enough, the second pack of Community Liveries includes an amazing community-created livery for the Ford Escort Mk 1 as well as six real-life DTM liveries for the Mercedes 190E 2.5-16 Evolution2.

Is the track any good ?

It's a rather generic track: Completly flat, bunch of random corners - nothing that really stands out.

Cars are great though - I especially love the IMSA GTO. Overall I think the value for money of the Racing Icons Pack was better, but if you like the cars then go for it

Going to grab it in a few minutes and run the Audi 90 at Watkins Glen.

Meh, not much of an "Expansion". The Audi 90 is nice, strange driving car but nice. Track, doesn't fit in with what is already present but there are at least 4 layouts so that is good. I would say...hold off.

Didn't they say no DLCs? Or was that for Dirt Rally. I don't know. But this is basic DLC material and we get a free car in a paid DLC? Wot m8.

The Audi GTO 90 is the same one as in RRE. And it's awesome there too.

Must have been Dirt Rally. Project Cars even has a dedicated page for their DLC plans.

Even if you dont have the dlc like myself, if you find a room using the dlc it will let you join and race

Audi IMSA GTO sounds like Sh.....t.

Look and hear real sound and sound of engine in R3E of this car. However the prices for dlc of pCARS is the best for today.

My video of all the cars in action, could not get my head around the track yet as I have never driven it before so not included in the video.

I like the cars they are the higher end of the car roster when it comes to the FFB. The R8 LMP900 is especially nice to drive.

There will be multiple DLC packs and they've already laid out plans for some of them. The free car is separate from the paid DLC, you receive it even if you don't purchase the DLC pack (I believe).

To be fair to them they have the sound of the IMSA Audi spot on really, the wastegate noise is bang on, a very difficult thing to get right and one most devs would miss out. R8 isnt bad either. Not sure what they fele like as I dont have the game but sounds are good.

I bought the pack for the Audi 90, I love this car and the whole ordeal of Audi trying to race in the US. BUT DANG, the R8 LMP900 is a BLAST!!! Fast and a handful! I want to make a custom season so I can run an ALMS season!!
