Somewhat surprisingly, Studio 397 announced the release of an update for the BMW M2 CS present on rFactor 2, which has thus been updated to the latest technologies, and not just in terms of physics.
The car now features the latest tire model, refined TC and ABS systems, electronic downshift protection and other tweaks such as a more aggressive blip and updated suspension geometry. But since the eye and ear also want their part, the car also features new liveries, new animations for the drivers and a more realistic audio sector that resembles the real counterpart.
Furthermore, the team has announced that there will be the possibility for users to get their hands on the M2 CS completely free of charge. However, more information will be released later.
There are also minor updates for the Vauxhall Astra, March 761, McLaren M23 and Brabham BT44. Here is the complete changelog:
