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.

* 16 unique car models in 8 classes with over 140 variations.

I would like to see a flag stand at the start/finish line with a man waving all of the flags during the race. I think that it would be interesting to see yellow flags at the corners during the race or the whole sector waves the flags.

they do. or atleast on mine they do. on the simbin tracks at least. mayube turn up the world movement and detail levels a bit see what you get.

 

[Bob Luneski]

Ok. So..... It's Q2 2009. Where is it?

In development. There is another almost 3 months left of Q2 2009.

After watching F1 and A1GP (the last race in South Africa was great!) I'm so hungry for open wheelers! Bring on the International Formula Mastaaaah!

Press release

SIMBIN HAS RELEASED RACE ON ARTWORK

SimBin has released the first glimpse of the upcoming title RACE On with
ingame artwork focused on the 2008 WTCC Champion Yvan Muller
and the winning SEAT.


RACE On is much more than the 2008 WTCC class, but the first unveiling could not have any other
focus than the reigning "tin top" king of the hill, Yvan Muller, as SimBin knows many gamers will want
to jump in his SEAT TDI and see if they can be king of the hill.

These new exciting screens will keep you on the edge of your SEAT until the unveiling of the new
US Muscle cars in the near future.... exchanging precise and well behaved WTCC racing machinery
with raw US power and brute force.

For ingame artwork please visit:
www.simbin.se/games/race_on.htm


RACE On is scheduled for release Q2 2009.
