I am so looking forward to the calibra. Has been my favourite car back in the days and I am happy kw will add some tracks. This will be a great update together with the new skydomes and emmissive lights.
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 also think as sim racing human beings we get attracted to the shiny next thing and that’s only natural. I know a lot of people who’ve gone from Raceroom to AMS2. I still race on Raceroom. It’s still a lot of fun but also is one of the few sims where you can race a full recreation grid rather than just one car. Yes I know we have mods on other sims but sometimes they can be a hassle. 😅 I used to really enjoy the full season modes in Raceroom, shame they got rid of them.
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
01:49 - The lighting looks much better and more realistic in the older version. Seems the newer version has gave it a cartoon look with over saturated colours.
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.
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.❤
Finally not a yet another "This sim is so underrated" type of video about Raceroom. We all know this game is full of unrealized potential and we're waiting to see if they can actually do it 😅
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.
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.
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
Can't believe no one has really added this to their sim before now. Leave it to RaceRoom to be the first. This content is LONG overdue. I absolutely love this era of racing and especially the DTM cars. For me, the 90's was the best era of racing, be it DTM, F1 or Touring cars. Speaking of which: Hey RaceRoom, how about adding 90's Touring Cars to your platform at some point?
DTM was one of the first form of motorsports that i remember to ever watch, precisely in the 90s and I love these cars. Would be cool to have Singen in the game as well, plus, is the first time that the version with the chicane at the Nordkurve is available in any form on a racing game/sim. In 95 Keke Rosberg had a nasty accident at the start of the first race in AVUS (ultimately he decided to end his career as a racing driver later in that year) and the whole field refused to do the second race. Other track from that season missing in the game is Estoril, that's another version of the track which isn't available anywhere in racing sims.
I hate to say, but my main memory of Avus was when Keith O'Dor was sadly killed at, while racing for Nissan in the STW Cup in 1995. Such a huge shame and the other kicker, he was killed in the second race of the day. He had won the first and was such a mega talent.
OMG I have seen the DDM live n 1995 😍 so we get Wunstorf, a military airport? Avus and other tracks? And the Alpha Romeo ❤ I remember to hear these cars firing up 😱
I never understood people being overly loyal to one sim. They all have something to offer. Raceroom has been my favorite for years, but after after comparing RF2, AMS2, ACC, IR and R3E, R3E is really starting to feel dated. I took the same car and same tracks and matched, as closely as i could, the car aetups in all of them and Raceroom just felt basic and the graphics shoetcoming stood out. Not as bad as ACC though. IR, AMS2 and RF2 felt really close to each other with the cars tuned the same. I own just about everything in R3E, so seeing this update gives me hope they are investing back into the engine.
You are right, all different sims have their strengths and weaknesses... And even then, it's totally down to personal preference. Play what you enjoy, and that doesn't have to be at the cost of ever playing anything else!
All the Sega Touring Car fans are popping out of the woodwork for this update! I fell in love with Calibra because of that game. I'm looking forward to this update!
Great video as always! Very excited to return to raceroom with the new update. off topic: I see that you are using a qr1 lite from fanatec. your base it's 8nm? I'm thinking about upgrade from 5nm to 8nm, but i don't know if the qr1 lite can handle. thank you
I just know Hockenheimring from 'Racedriver: GRID', but it has been terrible to play that because of the bs catch-up nonsense they'd programmed into the AI. - It's just no fun because you can push as hard as you can without making any progress. You can sometimes suddenly get ahead a lot by doing well, but then this whole platoon of other cars will just come up in your mirrors and be right be like they just hit the NOS-button. - Whatever, man... I don't remember what TOCA Touring Cars, also by Codemasters, was like, but that felt a lot more serious back when they were newer, long before anything "GRID" and "DiRT". I mean, I doubt they'd have put "catch-up" into those games, unless it was a setting or something (which was often a thing in racing-games, so might very well have been in those).
Well, here is hoping they get VR working again. Ever since that last major graphics update a few years back it's been crap, even on my new PC with 4090 card. Also wish they could do something that would bring back online participation in the US.
This looks mega, so mega that it makes me think I should get a gaming pc. I wouldn’t know where to start, how much am I looking at to get a decent one even if just playing with a controller on my tv?
So many cool and unique cars in this game, yet still everyone just races GT3s or the F4. DTM 95 will be just as forgotten as any other car that is not part of the 2 categories I mentioned. Shame..
This would require a very long and detailed answer to try and explain... But the best way to find out is to give some of the free content a go for yourself, as it is free to download/enter! Some people will prefer this, others prefer something else, it all comes down to personal preference. :)
To this day for me personally the massacring of Hockenheim by Herman Tilke is the biggest and most atrocious crime in the motorsport world. Utter and completely catastrophy. Used to be my favorite track to watch F1, DTM or any form of racing on and when it appeared disfigured and abused in 2002 for the German GP, i can clearly remember, at the age of 15 shedding a few tears. It is the only track i refuse to race on, in any sim, unless it's the classic pre-2001 layout. Every other Tilke "achievement" simply fades in the background. He didn't simply kill the track, he banished the soul.
love the cars, would dearly love to play it, but I've never gelled with R3E, I've had it since the start, but I always find myself going to AC or Automobilista. I think its just that the environments feel dead, the lighting is dull and apart from the live track, it just feels wrong, i.e. not immersive. Call me a graphics whore, but I want the immersion, and R3E for all its great content, just never pulled me in.
Wish the dev had stayed firm on their plan to drag their sim into 2024 with full engine upgrade. Weather and night is a deal breaker for me. I uninstalled the title due to being fed up of dry lapping at times set in the day. With AC-Evo around the corner, there's not enough here for me to change my opinion. Gr8 vid TraxionGG, but the dev dropped the ball massively here. This could be viewed as a half-hearted attempt. Hopefully the reshade will help move RRE from 11th worse game played on Steam in June. Even trackmania beat it.

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.
+1. Larini was my hero.
I am so looking forward to the calibra. Has been my favourite car back in the days and I am happy kw will add some tracks. This will be a great update together with the new skydomes and emmissive lights.
155 ❤
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!
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.
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.
Fingers crossed!

It's... Epic!
I love Race room....can't wait to see the update in VR with the new gt3 dtm pack 😎
Once the update drops, think I’ll go ahead and buy all the content they have. Phenomal price for all of it
I appreciated the lil history lessons in this one.
Glad you enjoyed!
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.
Enjoy!
01:49 - The lighting looks much better and more realistic in the older version. Seems the newer version has gave it a cartoon look with over saturated colours.
I'm hyped for the dtm 1995 pack and classic tracks!
Yes it is!
I'm gladful that i saw them live...

Cloud cover control is a new thing, so perhaps that will make a big difference to how you perceive the look in each individual situation!
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.❤
Really appreciate your comment! Massive fans of motorsport here so being able to combine the two things is always huge fun for us 🙌🏼😊
My rusty old Vectra in the DTM version?!?!? Count me in!
Finally not a yet another "This sim is so underrated" type of video about Raceroom. We all know this game is full of unrealized potential and we're waiting to see if they can actually do it 😅
That little smile when the Calibra goes on 2 wheels ;)
Nice Touch with the mid 90's Euro dance. 🎉❤
My favourite series in my favourite racing sim! Can't wait to play this in VR!
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.
Love DTM, those 90s cars were so cool

Will possibly be to do with RaceRoom's DTM license. :)
That Calibra was my unbeatable GOAT on Gran Turismo 5. Another chance to fling a Cali-Braaa around again I'm all for it
Back again for the end of the video. The 90s where the golden years for motorsport globally BTCC DTM Aus TCC.
really cool stuff, a breathe of fresh air. if i had a good pc i’d buy it immediately
It's very cool!
as somebody who lives 15 minutes away from avus. i cant wait to race on it in raceroom.

OPEL AND DIEPHOLZ I AM COMING
7:59 which was also made of brick
Absolutely wild!
I've never tried Raceroom yet but this looks pretty good.
The update feels like a Sega Touring Car Championship, but with sim racing driving physics. Minus Eurodance & Euorbeat music. 😂
Best Racing game by far. I am desperate waiting 4 the new update
I hate to say, but my main memory of Avus was when Keith O'Dor was sadly killed at, while racing for Nissan in the STW Cup in 1995. Such a huge shame and the other kicker, he was killed in the second race of the day. He had won the first and was such a mega talent.
I hope raceroom would be on LFM, it would increase the popularity of this awesome sim.
That'd be great. One can hope.
Always wanted to get into R3. Already re-downloaded last night for when the new update comes out.
OMG I have seen the DDM live n 1995 😍 so we get Wunstorf, a military airport? Avus and other tracks? And the Alpha Romeo ❤ I remember to hear these cars firing up 😱
This game needs a SIngle Player Campaing tbh
Looking forward to the update on the 4th of September!
It would be REALLY cool if they could add more vintage cars, but im at least going to buy the rest of the 95dtm pack.
Amazing content. Keep it up, please!
still no correct dashboard for cars and no night races, but pretty cool update overall
Short answer: Yes.
Longer answer: Yes. It will be the best sim racing content this year for me personally.
Looking forward to these beautiful cars!
Enjoy them!😄
I never understood people being overly loyal to one sim. They all have something to offer. Raceroom has been my favorite for years, but after after comparing RF2, AMS2, ACC, IR and R3E, R3E is really starting to feel dated.

You will love it!
Automobilista 2 🔛🔝 but RaceRoom is definitly worth it too
Yes. I drive both. I drive all of the sims...except iracing.
Raceroom should come to console with PC/PS crossoplay
Great video as always! Very excited to return to raceroom with the new update.
off topic: I see that you are using a qr1 lite from fanatec. your base it's 8nm? I'm thinking about upgrade from 5nm to 8nm, but i don't know if the qr1 lite can handle. thank you
QR Lite will limit you to 5Nm I believe. I just upgraded mine to a QR1 to get the full 8Nm!
@@rossjmcgregor I don't think that qr1 lite limit the base to 5nm.
@@MrJM900 You're right, it doesn't. I wouldn't advise using 8Nm with it though, better to upgrade to a metal QR IMO

Hm, VR worked good for me through out all versions of R3E, Reverb G2 and 4090. Anyway, hope it will work for you again!
I’m on a 3080ti with DPVR E4 and Quest 3 and zero issues in my several years with the sim, both offline and online.
What the dtm 2024 pack contain ? Only livery?
erm is it just me, or does the old version look better?
This looks mega, so mega that it makes me think I should get a gaming pc.
I wouldn’t know where to start, how much am I looking at to get a decent one even if just playing with a controller on my tv?
Praise Avis! 😂
Awesome 👍🚘

I don't know. As a insanely raceroom fan I havde to say I like the old graphics better
\o/
I'd play but i could never get VR performance anywhere near acceptable, anywhere near the iracing implementation.
can I play it on linux?
Hey! I have 600€ to buy a dd bundle … What should i buy?
Moza R5 and use the rest to buy all of R3Es content
R3Es?
0:03 Why does it take so long to load, then? I uninstalled this turd.

they all are putting every sim out there including a car sim made from a farm simulator , before the king comes,The AC Evo

Hope they will add 90's DTM goodness: Mercedes 190 Evo II, BMW E30 M3, Audi V8 Quattro
Good news! They already have those, plus an Opel Omega and a Fox mustang!
game looks too dark,
Bro needs to start working out asap
i know girls with thicker arms then urs
We've already got the 92s, so what's the point of bringing out the 95s...no, really...need 80's !
Still think Project Cars 2 ticks the most boxes for me.
Keep returning to it. 😅
Looking to uninstall the rest.😊
Meh
RaceRoom is good!
