The McLaren 650s GT3 looks set to be released as the first paid DLC for rFactor 2 next week...

Born from a collaboration with a number of GT squads and McLaren themselves, the 650s that features in the ongoing 'Worlds Fastest Gamer' eSport competition looks set to be released to the public as early as next week, coming hot on the heals of the first ingame images revealed just yesterday.

With the real life Spa 24 Hour taking place this weekend as part of the Blancpain Endurance Championship, rFactor and Studio 397 have revealed some more new images of the next car coming to rFactor 2, plus confirmation that the vehicle will be launched next week and presumably (on account of the images) comes with some level of collaboration with the Strakka Racing Blancpain GT team.

Scheduled to potentially retail for around 4.99 eu, the car should mark the first of a series of officially licenced GT3 machines coming to rFactor 2 over the coming months, marking a pleasant shift towards bringing comparable groupings of cars to the simulation for the first time, rather than the usual practice of seemingly disjointed single car releases since in previous years.

Stay tuned for more information as and when it becomes available...

Anyone know about how to get involved in the wfg competition? Will you need to purchase the dlc or is this a way to test it out?

You need to purchase the McLaren to be able to join the competition.

Any car you purchase in rFactor 2 you can try out, and if you don't like it, within 48 hours you can request a refund from Steam. I believe that gives you enough time to figure out if you like the car or not.

How will that apply to the preordered GT3 car pack? We can refund within 48 hours of all the cars being released?
