ASSETTO CORSA – Autodromo di Vallelunga officially revealed
KUNOS Simulazioni is glad to announce that the italian racing circuit “Piero Taruffi” of Vallelunga will be officially included in the upcoming PC racing game Assetto Corsa.
Vallelunga is not just one of the italian tracks included in the upcoming PC game Assetto Corsa: it is also the Kunos Simulazioni's HQ. Since 2009, the software house has been located inside the track with the aim to “live” and breath the world of motorsport on a daily basis. Having a research&development studio in a racing track homologated for international races and Formula 1 tests, represents an excellent opportunity by a logistic and
commercial point of view. It has allowed the development team of Assetto Corsa to improve its modeling techniques of 3D environments, in order to optimize the data collection on those tracks where timeline and weather conditions are not ideal. Since
2009, the staff of the Autodromo of Vallelunga proved to be a valuable partner, and also thanks to its logistical cooperation, today Kunos Simulations owns the ideal assets to bring on an ambitious production like Assetto Corsa, that is used by the CSAI (Italian federal motorsport Commission) to assist young drivers attending the Federal School.
The Autodromo of Vallelunga, reproduced in all of its characteristics, will be included in the first release of Assetto Corsa and is the subject of a gallery of images showing the awesome McLaren MP4-12C in action on the circuit located near the beautiful city of Rome, Italy.
