Enjoy racing in your own World Endurace Championship with the most complete WEC mod ever made for rFactor 2! This mod is brought to you by World Endurance Modders.
IMPORTANT NOTICES
The mod is still in its beta phase, so it's not perfect yet. Any feedback can be easily shared at our Discord server or the Bug Reports thread in the Steam Workshop mod.
The mod is meant for offline racing and has not been tested online!

Ferrari 488 GTE Evo
We have adjusted simtek's GT3 with new physics to upgrade its performance to GTE spec. Thanks to a source that wishes to stay anonymous, we were also able to improve the textures and graphics, making it look and feel like an entirely new car! The Ferrari is balanced with Studio 397's GTE cars to ensure balanced racing in both GTE Pro and GTE Am.
LMP1
We also introduced the LMP1 class. All cars are based on the Oreca 07 LMP2 model, but we gave them a performance boost to get them up to spec for LMP1 (and even a bit faster than their real counterparts).
All cars have their real 2019/2020 liveries and real driver names.
LMP2
The LMP2 cars have received a small performance boost, resembling the performance gains the LMP2 class has made since 2017.
The #47 Cetilar Racing Dallara has slightly different engine and wing settings, but also uses the Oreca chassis. We are looking into finding/creating a Dallara chassis, but don't expect anything to change here soon.
LMGTE Pro and LMGTE Am
We also chose to alter the performance of the GTE cars a bit to get a clear difference between GTE Pro and Am. The BOP has been done to have a clear difference between these classes across all included tracks.
Drivers and liveries
All teams will have the correct 2019/2020 liveries, as well as one selected driver from the current season. In future updates, we will add alternative liveries, like the Wynn's livery for Project 1.
Balance of performance
We made balance of performance (BOP) adjustments for all included tracks, as well as Le Mans, using track-specific aero packages.
To ensure you are using the correct BOP settings for all cars, you should manually force the setups for all car models. We are working on a method to have this done automatically, so that will be added in a future update.
As the mod is updated, we will keep adjusting the BOP. We will also create BOP settings for Sebring, Nürburgring and any tracks we will add to the mod.
Additional Cars
While we are working on including all teams for the 2020 24 Hours of Le Mans, we wanted you to be able to run a full 60 car grid at Le Mans. Therefore we have added 30 cars which featured in WEC or Le Mans, which can be used to fill the grid per class.
Community Cars
Another additional feature we added are our so-called "community cars". These are realistic fantasy liveries, which can be used to race in your own World Endurance Championship. Currently, the supply is limited, but we will add more community cars in future updates.
Tracks
We have also included the tracks of the 2019/2020 season that are not available for purchase (Le Mans and Sebring). The tracks have been made by GPVWC and we have adjusted them to comply WEC regulations and sponsormaps. GPVWC's tracks have been created for online racing, which results in some strange AI behavior. Although the basic AI behavior is alright, we are working hard on improving AI behavior and driving lines, which will be added in future updates. Because these AI issues caused game-breaking issues at COTA and Shanghai, we will add these tracks once the issues have been resolved. Future updates will also include Monza and maybe Kyalami, which are the new additions on the provisional 2020/21 calendar.
Graphics
To make the WEC experience more immersive, we created WEC style preview icons for the cars and tracks, as well as track loading screens.
