PC2 Spirit of Le Mans Now Available for Project CARS 2

[Paul Jeffrey]

Slightly Mad Studios have released the latest Project CARS 2 DLC pack to the game - welcome 'Spirit of Le Mans'.

Perfect timing considering the proximity to the real life Le Mans 24 Hours, the new DLC pack and update for Project CARS 2 on PC and console has arrived! As was expected follow news having leaked back in late May about the new pack, the third Project CARS 2 DLC focusses exclusively on the greatest endurance racing spectacle on the planet - the legendary 24 hours of Le Mans.

Containing an historic variant of the epic Le Mans circuit and nine important cars from the many years of the 24 Heures du Mans, the new DLC pack pays virtual homage to the history of this fabled motor racing event.

With cars from the modern era adding a welcome filling out of the Prototype category in the game sitting alongside some iconic machines of the past, the DLC also contains the 1971 variation of the circuit, similar but frighteningly faster than the current incarnation of the Circuit de la Sarthe, this is indeed a welcome "new" historic location in Project CARS 2.

Ok.. so I have to own up.. I'm an idiot... I grew up watching LeMans and one would think this DLC was a dream come true.. I gave it a couple of laps and made the ridiculous comment above!
Well i've done about 100 laps since then () and I am absolutely in heaven..
Best DLC i've ever seen..
So here's a photo to show you what i've been up to the last 2 days!!

Hope you all enjoy it as much as I do!

I am like you in a sense but I think I have done somewhere around god knows how many laps maybe around 100 or 150 laps of the old LM circuit and it never gets old! its awesome!

Just a heads up, we'll be doing a 2.5 hr enduro race with the spirit of Le Mans pack this Friday the 12th. Quali starts at 8PM EST. Multiclass Vintage prototype A and Vintage GTA on the Classic Le Mans circuit. Ingame will be daytime as not all the cars have headlights and we'll be going dry-rain-dry to up the excitement. Nothing serious just so we can have some fun (as long as you keep it clean). We're on PC.
