Sector 3 has released an update for RaceRoom that brings minor fixes and improvements, plus an overhaul to the physics of the P1 and P2 class cars.
It's been a busy year already for RaceRoom Racing Experience. Already in 2022 the sim has added TT Circuit Assen and new layouts of Indianapolis Motor Speedway, plus we recently heard that Ferrari will soon be joining the roster of cars on offer.
Instead of only relying on the success of new content, the development team has been making improvements to existing cars and tracks as well. The most recent batch of improvements to existing content focused largely on the P1 and P2 prototype classes.
P1 and P2 are the top prototype classes in R3E. Over the past few years Sector 3 has been improving many of the older car classes, and P1 and P2 are two of the notable classes that were due for an update. While the classes aren't filled with the bigger name LMP1 and LMP2 cars we've seen compete in recent years, there are notable cars like the Audi R18 and the Chevrolet Daytona Prototype.
This is perhaps not the update some players had hoped for, as the recently added Indy oval layout is begging for a low aero package of the Formula RaceRoom US car. Currently there are no oval cars to race on the Indy oval, and the Daytona oval remains inaccessible but present in the game, so it seems that RaceRoom is on the cusp of opening up more oval racing opportunities.
The changelog is noted below. This isn't a huge update, but the tweaks and improvements are also welcome, and the revitalized prototype classes give us something else to enjoy in RaceRoom. Let us know your thoughts on the changes in the comments below.
