Is This The Coolest New Sim Racing Content This Year?

RaceRoom has dropped news of a huge new update for the free-to-play sim, incorporating three new tracks (with five layouts) and four new cars.

First up, we try the fire-spitting Opel Calibra V6 4×4 and Alfa Romeo 155 2.5 V6 TI DTM 1995 monsters, enjoying them in their natural habitats of Avus, Diepholz and Hockenheim Klassik.

Then, we jump onto RaceRoom's DTM 2024 Car Pack, where the McLaren 720S GT3 Evo and Lamborghini Huracán GT3 EVO2 make their bows, representing the first time the Italian manufacturer has appeared in the sim.

We also take a look at RaceRoom's recent major graphics overhaul, analysing how circuit visuals will dramatically improve once the new build goes live.

I'm a very simple man - you add 90's touring content to a sim, I'm gonna buy it.

Can't wait to get my hands on the 155 and Calibra.

[reidtaylor]

Really looking forward to this. I love 90's DTM. I would also love to see them add the 90's BTCC cars and tracks as well. That would be epic!

[nickyjj]

Used to be my go to sim with tin tops, but in recent times I think the sim fell behind. This update looks promising and I hope it brings the sim back.

[StephanCobas]

The sound of the engine is crazy, I love it. It's incredible how they managed to reproduce the sound of the Opel, Mercedes and Alfa Romeo 1995 DTM cars.

The new update looks mega! Even on a video game, Avus looks like a scary circuit. It’s not surprising that they eventually stopped racing there in the late 90s

Raceroom is going to sell this content in buckets loads. These 95 cars look bloody awesome and will play nice with the lone Merc. Cannot wait. The whole update looks fantastic, its going to give RRE a new bump up the grid it so richly deserves.

I love Race room....can't wait to see the update in VR with the new gt3 dtm pack 😎

[Ikuconodule]

I appreciated the lil history lessons in this one.

[reamesyy]

Once the update drops, think I’ll go ahead and buy all the content they have. Phenomal price for all of it

[Paragleiber]

The new content is awesome but to be honest I think I prefer the brightness of the old graphics in the comparison here. Darker colors may be more realistic but they aren't necessarily nicer to look at. Maybe it's just bad/ugly weather settings for the new version in this video though. In this video here Avus looks super dull because of the dark lighting but in Overtake's video it is shown with sunny weather, which makes it look a lot nicer.

My rusty old Vectra in the DTM version?!?!? Count me in!

[GIddyUpRetep]

RaceRoom is so good already. Looking forward to the updates though. It is one of my top sims and I pretty much have all sims including iRacing.

[schwalli]

I'm hyped for the dtm 1995 pack and classic tracks!

[deanothemanc]

Outstanding video, tbh its more motorsport journalism. Also huge respect for mentioning Kieth Odor. Really well done. If you love tintops, raceroom is a must.❤

[Lasztmichdurch]

Yes it is!
I'm gladful that i saw them live...

[hughxthexhand]

That track was in TOCA RACE DRIVER/V8 SUPERCARS here in Australia from memory. I'm north of 50 so these cars where apart of my youth although I had to get the races on VHS half season at a time 6 months after they where done

[CrazyHenkie]

My favourite series in my favourite racing sim! Can't wait to play this in VR!

[Alexp]

Nice Touch with the mid 90's Euro dance. 🎉❤

[martijnvangammeren]

There are quite a view great interviews with Larini, Nanini and Kurt Thiim about these cars and how advanced they where.DTM had it all great drivers and racing but also the "bad things" like crashes, fights between drivers and of course Nanini getting back at Ash and sending him flying after Ash hit Nanini before.

Such good content from R3E! So good to have classic tin tops unlike AMS2 with the many many classic open wheelers.
Nice to have them all but this is the stuff AMS2 needs to bring.
