If you don't have a GT3, you have failed your simulation. It's the fashion^^.

It's like Far Cry with all the games afterwards that exploited the beaches with more or less success.

Maybe one day we'll come back to steam car games.

Can we get regular black tires for the 2019 Audi LMS GT3? The current ones are hideous concept car tires.

Audi tires design fits right in to this topic. To me they look awesome.

rF2 may have some good cars and sim feel, but starting the game is like waiting for the Antarctic ice shelf to melt. It is happening but when will it end?

Fine for an initial release, but painters are trying to create cars that match the originals. You may have noticed that very few(yes very very few if any) Audi competitors race at Nords or IMSA or WEC with those promo skined tires.

Lets do it different: Yo Marcel...AI dude...AI!!

Do the cars come with reasonable liveries? Not blank cars or numbered cars only, like the Bentley.

Yeah, there are a few for each. Nothing wild, but have you see Ferrari liveries? You get red.

For the GTE they added all the liveries that were used in the Virtual 24 hours of Le Mans a while back. Also for all the other GTE and LMP2 cars.

soem of those might be buggy though, I open up one of the ferraris and it was pure white
