AT LONG LAST! Sector3 Studios have today revealed something rather special indeed - previews from an upcoming track release for RaceRoom Racing Experience - Karlskoga Motorstadion (better known as Gellerasen).
Gellerasen is a wonderful and challenging race track that is home to the Scandinavian Touring Car Championship. The circuit is also the oldest permanent race track in Sweden, the same country as the Sector 3 Studios development team. Many race sim fans will be very familiar with this circuit from the STCC and STCC 2 games by SimBin Studios, the official video game of the Scandinavian Touring Car Championship.
Desire for a new STCC game has been rather strong amongst RaceRoom Racing Experience fans for a long time now and many will no doubt be very hopeful that this preview marks the first in a series of Swedish tracks to come for the sim (or hopefully a precursor to a new STCC pack???). For those of you who are maybe less familiar with the Swedish racing scene, many tracks located in the region can be considered reminiscent of the British racing calendar, with often short and twisting technical locations mixed in with 'old school' high speed / high risk tracks that inspire images of race tracks before the safety police took over and sanitised many icon locations.
You can watch an on-board lap of the real circuit below
What's more, the studio have confirmed release is scheduled for 'fairly soon' and further track announcements are in the pipeline to be revealed in the near future. Exciting times ahead...
RaceRoom Racing Experience is a free to play racing simulation by Sector3 Studios for Windows PC. The base game can be downloaded and played for free, with limited content. Additional content such as the DTM and WTCC packs can be purchased separately via the in game store.
