The Boxer Cup looks to essentially be a Porsche Carrera Cup car which, for fans of the sim, is a greatly appreciated addition considering much of the game's'obscure content'. Additionally if you've ever seen a Porsche Carrera Cup race, you'll know that the racing is brutally close, so there's that to look forward too.
Virginia International Raceway (VIR) is a massive addition to the game as it's a break away from the majority of Brazilian tracks found in game. Considered as one of America's Crown Jewel race tracks, VIR was first opened in 1957 and since then has been used for categories such as NASCAR, ISMA GT, the American Le Mans Series and the Rolex Sports Car Series.
