RACE On announced

[Trebor901]

The next scheduled release, RACE On will target all PC owners with a bit of petrol in their blood and comes with a very strong selection of new challenging content including the tracks and cars from WTCC season 2008 which turned out to be the best and most competitive championship ever. SimBin has recreated the epic 2008 season down to the smallest detail and now YOU get the chance to show the world who the real champion is. Jump in the car of your favorite racing driver and compete with the best through 12 unique tracks located around the globe including Okayama.

Race On also marks a new focus from SimBin with the inclusion of iconic Detroit Muscle cars suited for those who like to lay down lots of rubber power sliding out of corners on the rev limiter. Enough torque to drag the moon off orbit, full opposite lock and a big grin on your face.

To finish the new lineup SimBin brings you Formula Masters, a top of the line open wheel series, offering you even more speed and action than ever before. Extreme cornering speeds and simulated g-forces make this a true driver’s car.

But RACE On is not just new cars, it also features brand new American tracks in SimBin quality and it comes with a hefty update of existing tracks to 2008 standard. With RACE ON comes 5 brand new tracks all recreated down to minute detail.

As a bonus the game also includes the complete “STCC The Game” (The Swedish Touring Car Championship) which has previously only been released in retail stores in the Nordic territory and Russia. The tight and technical Scandinavian circuits and the wide variety of touring cars running in the series have already created a large following so SimBin is happy to be able to offer this package to the rest of the world including 7 Nordic tracks and 6 unique car models.

About RACE On
RACE On includes the following new content:

* 16 unique car models in 8 classes with over 140 variations.
* 12 tracks of which several never has been released by SimBin on PC.

RACE On will be available as a stand alone game including all RACE 07 content and an expansion pack for existing owners of RACE 07 will also be available.

All in all this makes up for:

* 39 unique car models in 17 classes with over 450 variations.
* 30 tracks and 17 alternate layouts, in total 47 tracks.

For current owners of GTR Evolution RACE On is designed to merge and fully integrate with the existing GTR Evolution. RACE On is scheduled for release in Q2 2009

Could I just order the US version? Would there be any problem with that?

 

[Ulli Haus]

What do you think guys,
can I just buy the US specs Copy of the game and install it, although I already have the Race 07 and EVO installed in German!?


THX

Looking forward to the US muscle
But, hopefully, they do not create another Car Setup layout!

 

[GAIAjohan]

Car setup is still the same?

 

[GAIAjohan]

Could I just order the US version? Would there be any problem with that?

Doin't think so. You'll just get the US box from Vivamedia instead of Bitcomposer.

 

[Ulli Haus]

To Mark Birney:

I also think it shouldn't be a problem... you got english versions installed any ways!


But what happens to my german version of GTR E? I mean, I don't care to have it in english, but I don't want some game to be in english, the other in german etc.

 

[Chris Tranmer]

Surely these different release dates are going to encourage piracy even more. Which is sad seeing as Simbin is a small company and need all the money they can get!

[Mark Birney]

Shouldn't be an issue, if I recall, there is no regions in terms of CDs/DVDs on the PC.

I went to amazon.com thought maybe pay a few dollars more and have it shipped to the uk lolololol

$27 us turned into £47 uk with shipping taxes and whatever else, i think i`ll wait!!!!

Ok looking at the cover on the official website, its race 07 with stcc plus added content us muscle and the like, if i get that what do i do with my original race 07 and the one that came with gtr evo, i then have 3 copies of race07 and am led to believe they are none transferable (yes\no) could someone confirm? surely an option to mix n match would be nice, or just be able to buy the addons without race.

then again its late, im tired and probly missed something!


oh yeah anyone wanna buy a copy or 2 of race 07

 

[scca1981]

anyone wanna guess how long we'll have to wait for paint templates for the new cars?

They are probably scheduled for Oct 2009, but will be delayed to March 2010 :laugh2:

I bought it from Amazon last night. Hopefully it comes soon! I couldn't wait for the local stores to get it. Fortunately for me, since I live in California the price was about US$28.

Works out well for me because I have Race07 and GTR Evo, but never bought the STCC, so now I'll get STCC and the new Race On content for under $30 - that's a good deal IMO.

Thanks for all the screen shots!

Could you give us a screen shot of the car setup screen? Only if it looks different than GTR Evo's screen.
