Road America Coming to RaceRoom Racing Experience

[Paul Jeffrey]

Perhaps one of the most notable circuits in the USA, the legendary Road America track has been confirmed as on the way to RaceRoom Racing Experience very "soon"...

Confirmed to be the first track of 2018 for RaceRoom Racing Experience, Road America is a wonderful and iconic 6.515km permanent road course in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin, USA. Featuring a mix of fast and technical corners with good overtaking opportunities, this popular racing location is expected to join the simulation as part of the upcoming new major build release, expected at some stage in the coming weeks.

Is it beautiful? Yes. Is it fun to drive? Yes. Will it be coming to RaceRoom Racing Experience in the near future as paid DLC? Hell yes! Check out the released screenshots below, and stay tuned for more news as and when it becomes available...

RaceRoom Racing Experience is available exclusively to PC on a free to play platform with additional content available at a further cost.

Beautiful track design work. Quality indeed.

Yes one of the best tracks to race on, always been in my top 5 tracks I would buy in any sim ,
here some nice tips on driving the track

 

[CC]

Let get this hype train rolling last time they announced a track they released it 4 days later

 

[ronniej]

Surprise, surprise, surprise....And folks talk about PC2 being a cash cow. R3E = Maximum profit/minimal effort.
*Been awhile since I threw mud at this title..let me have it guys. Great track though.

 

[Will Mazeo]

Looking very nice, best thing is that people aren't whining about laser scan.

Hope they focus on the other US tracks as well, and Australia too

 

[Vilmos Vas]

Great news! I second Road Atlanta and Watkins Glen.

However, recently I was wondering about a V8 Supercars license in Raceroom. That would be fantastic!

 

[Msportdan]

what exactly is Empty box saying/suggesting about the physics in the USRR?. Especially t1 @RA he's amazed/bewildered at the corner grip - is that a fault of RR or is he amazed at the downforce the car produces.?

 

[Robert Stanley]

Another great track added; quality looks great, might actually get the Formula US car if there were more well known venues like this, Road Atlanta, Sebring, maybe the Indy 500 / Daytona "ovals" as an expansion into indycar / prototype racing?

 

[MoerasGrizzly]

is that a fault of RR or is he amazed at the downforce the car produces.?

The latter.

 

[Msportdan]

yeah i watched a onboard vid of kannan at RA last year and he does go down two gears and dabs breaks, just looks slower in real life than raceroom!

That is a wonderful onboard video. That car sounds good.

 

[Boby Kim]

Owh...that one triggers me

 

[walken]

Terrific! This is one of the best tracks to race. Now, if only they would do Mosport and Road Atlanta...

Mosport !!!! and Lime Rock of course...

 

[Jopamir]

very nice i will buy it, even if i don't play often raceroom...
And what about GT4 Porsche liveries ?
Maybe raceroom need cash to finish to pay Porsche licence....

Maybe this class, exclusevly, could be an oportunity for R3E to open it to free moding of liveries...

 

[Jopamir]

Yeah but be aware that apparent speed in raceroom (or other sim) is very dependant on the FOV one is using... Other than "real" FOV and the sense of speed will be "wrong".

Haha, I don't think the publisher would agree to that. Many of the liveries are actually already done, as you can see them in a few rare screenshots. They're just being finished off before being released. Might even be in this update, who knows?

unfortunately having a realistic FOV on something like a 21:9 means the peripheral vision of a letter box. Its ok but not the most ideal FOV to use.

Have they improved the AI? I just tend to find i'm really enjoying the racing & then i get shunted at some point hard that ruins the race. There doesn't seem a way to turn the aggression down a bit, i would be playing it 24/7 otherwise.

 

[Msportdan]

i think the AI are among the best in the business.. Even rf2 ai is not faultless. Most time if they bash in braking areas, means that you have set the ai too fast. But they are a bit tappy sometimes. Just treat em like humans. You most likely than not have a good race.
