Studio 397 have been busy - three new Nürburgring layouts, Reiza Pack Updates, New Porsche 991 GT3 Cup 'Endurance' update and more are here!
Yes, owners of the legend that is the rFactor 2 Nürburgring Nordschleife DLC have some more fun to look forward to the next time they fire up rFactor 2... the previously promised three additional layouts have been added to the pack - bringing the total number of combinations up to seven in total as the 'Sprint', 'Sprint no Chicane' and 'Endurance' layouts arrive to the simulation.
With the free update (for existing DLC owners) headlining the day for Studio 397, we also get a few more goodies to enjoy as well. When Nordschleife released back in late September, the little Porsche 911 GT3 Cup also made an appearance, and now the developers have given the car an altogether more aggressive update - adding an 'Endurance' specification to the machine that "consists of different dampers and 2 sets of softer springs, compared to the Supercup specification. The Endurance package also comes with ABS system and aerodynamic package: front fender flares + rear wing 10 mm gurney flap and restricts the engine power output to a nominal 413 PS. Additionally the Endurance package also comes with a possibility to refuel the car, with fuel tank capacity lowered to 95 L, compared to 100 L with the Supercup specification. The car also weighs 30 kg more" - oh and two new liveries as well.
On the content front, the popular 'Reiza Pack' DLC has also received some love, with a new build releasing for this awesome pack that adds fixes and improvements to a number of the cars and the Imola circuit;
Imola:
Back in the land of official Studio 397 content, a golden oldie makes a bid for the limelight with the wonderful Nissan GT500 receiving the new shaders and materials update treatment - hopefully breathing fresh life into a car that brings the criminally under represented Japanese GT500 series into sim racing as official content;
Nissan GT500 v2.01
Last and probably least is a very, very minor fix to the Aston Martin Vantage GTE. Not as exciting as the previously mentioned updates, this move to v1.05 is just a minor fix to show proper GTE badge on steering wheel - but any little improvement is always welcomed!
Happy days for rF2 fans.
rFactor 2 is available exclusively for PC.
