McLaren 720S GT3 Coming to rFactor 2

[Paul Jeffrey]

rFactor 2 have revealed the next new car of the upcoming #rfchallengers DLC - the world exclusive sim racing debut of the brand new McLaren 720S GT3!

Confirmed as coming to the sim alongside the Porsche 911 GT3 R, BMW M6, Audi R8 LMS and one as yet unannounced licence, the confirmation today by Studio 397 of the impending release of the McLaren 720S GT3 is something of a coup for the studio - beating Assetto Corsa Competizione out the blocks as the first racing simulation to feature the latest, and potentially greatest, GT racing car from the formidable McLaren Automotive organisation.

With this latest announcement we now have four of the upcoming five car pack confirmed, leaving just a little bit of room for speculation as to the final model will be before we get our hands on the cars within the sim ourselves - I can't wait!

rFactor 2 is available exclusively for PC from Steam now.

Check out the rFactor 2 sub forum here at RaceDepartment for all the latest news and discussion with regards to the simulation. You can take part in lively debates with fellow rFactor 2 fans and take part in some great Club and League racing events..! Head over to the forum now!

So you from Chile also? My wife is from there and she is American! Or do you mead the US of A? because America is made up of more than just those 40 odd states or how many they have now, lol

If you wife is Chilly, get her a sweater. Yank, 'Merican, USof Aer, The Communist State of Kalifornia wants to split into 3. so If I take my socks off, that would be...uhm ...more. Fun fact: You can fit most of Europe inside the borders of Texas.(not all, but a-lot)

I will install rf2 and give it a try again when all the content in the base game is up to date. (all cars on latest tire model, all tracks using updated shaders, etc)
Any ETA on when that day might be?

Dave, please don't exacerbate the stereotype of stupid, self-centred Americans (even in a joking manner)...Europeans already have enough reasons to think badly.

Texas = 695,662 km²
Europe = 10.18 million km²

Only using Trump math would anyone even talk about these in the same sentence.

If you want to talk size, let's include Canada

Quebec = 1.668 million km²

I don't think the new pack is on sale. The original GT3 pack is on sale & there is a bundle of the GT3, Endurance pack & Sebring (GT Bundle) on sale also.

The Renault is not an official GT3 car, but seeing how they added the Radical, which isn't an official GT3 car either, there's a possibility.

official GT3 yes but no blancpain but in OpenGT competition

I'm from America....is there a difference? (not to be catty, just didn't know. freely admit my ignorance)

Yes, the Netherlands (some people say Holland) is the european country, where you can buy weed/pot legally. Denmark is only the european Canada...

 

[mantasisg]

Nicki Thiim is from Denmark, and he drives Aston. Dots connected

Texas = 695,662 km²
Europe = 10.18 million km²

Or, in other words, Texas is only slightly larger than France and would probably have a pretty unpleasant time should somebody try to cram the whole of Europe into it.

thats a nice gt3 line up now, get some big name tracks in the game and a season creator and you'll get alot of people coming back to rf2

Wow, that is a fun tidbit, if only it was remotely close to the fact.
So Netherlands is Denmark, and Europe is just slightly bigger than Texas

Silence is golden my friend. Silence is golden...

But, getting back on topic, the new Macca and the Aston Martin are the highlights of the upcoming pack for me for sure. Great to have these and well done S397!

 

[kkdrummer]

Do we know the price yet?

official GT3 yes but no blancpain but in OpenGT competition

Just because some series adopt it and allow it to run with GT3s doesn't make it a true GT3. GT3 is a class run by the FIA and it isn't on there list of homologated cars. There's no road car. One of the defining characteristics of GT3 is that they are based on road going production cars. That's the reason why it runs in the SP-X class at Nurburgring instead of the SP-9 class.

Cars, cars, even more cars, what about the new UI? RF2 is a great sim but it will never be popular if there's no effort to make it easier to use.

Please stay on topic. This thread is only for saying positive things about RF2. No constructive criticism is welcome. Thank you.

And another fantastic choice for the last car!!
Wonderful times ahead
