I love the 95 DTM content but THIS is the genre I've been praying for RaceRoom to do for a number of years. This is outstanding news, can't wait for December 10th!
Damn, I never expected to ever see those classic touring cars again in this modern age. I've been playing with them on AC using mods, but it's nice to see these return in an official manner. Giving RaceRoom a try...
I am completely back to RaceRoom since the awesome September update. Loving it in VR! Really hyped, because of the upcoming LFM integration. Great stuff!
Time to invest in race room. This is a game changer. Love the old Silverstone layout. Been messing with some BTCC mods on assetto corsa, croft, Thruxton and so on. This looks great.
If you want to invest: Buy the Premium Pack for 99 euros at the moment. You'll get the complete content once (!). If you buy the racing points in the website, you'll get a discount. It's about 75 Euros for the complete content. After black friday it's about 100 Euros - of you want to wait till the stw is coming. But I think, they will cost maximum amount of 25 euros with the new track - so it doesn't matter when you should buy the Complete Pack. 😅

I got it last month and fell in love with handling, force feedback, classes and engine sounds. Coming from ACC, AC, Dirt Rally 1 and 2, and RBR. Back in the day I played Toca 1 and Colin McRae Rally 2 on the ancients wheel bases of that time. Noisy, ugly, clunky and absolutely not smooth 😅
I started watching your channel because of the AMS2 livestream you did a while ago. Now I watch you every week. Keep up the good work covering the simracing world. ❤
STW / BTCC war / ist einer meiner absoluten lieblings Motorsport klassen. So viele Hersteller, Motor und Anteibskonzepte mega geil und immer packende rennen. Raceroom wird definitiv wieder öfter gefahren.
Hell yeah. RaceRoom is doing it again! Great addition of the already big car park. Let's hope we get the Opel/Vauxhall Vectra with Uwe Alzen livery, so we can feel like Uwe Alzen and Christian Abt 1999 😎, maybe in a less scandalous manner than in RL. If you don't know, look up 'STW 1999 Nurburgring'. Even if you don't understand the German commentary, you will get the most most crazy and scandalous finale in German touring car history. So crazy that it was decided in court thanks to a spectator's video recording.
We need more tracks too. Edit: i still play Race07 because of series like this and stcc. The variety of tracks is amazing too, thats why i can't uninstall it. This new RRR pack is an instant buy from me, please keep it coming.
@@Karvon88 Depends who you ask, if you want everything in the game, sure its a bit expensive. But still comparing it to other sims isnt that much more if you get all dlc+basegame. If you drive competitively and only focus on few classes, I think this model works just fine. For example I only have the starter pack +some random stuff like DTM23 and European tracks pack. In total all was like 40 ish euro so not bad at all. +If I wanna try something wacky I can just try any car. So yeah at least I would rather take this than having to buy whole dlc for a lot more when theres content I will never use🤷
@@real_Zuramaru Yep, but iRacing has offered for years a nice online experience (focused basically on online until a few years ago) that no one else offered, creating a good community (at least in terms of number of players). Raceroom didn't grown enough and many people because of FFB, physics or whatever the reason doesn't play RR. Seeying the amount of tracks and cars RR has it must be one of the TOP 2-3 simracing games but... there it is, ACC has 2,229 players online atm (steam), automobilista 471, raceroom 467... a lot of cars and tracks but many people and afford new cars/tracks (which are awesome btw) so it is so difficult to play online and enjoy the game as much as we should do with the amazing cars and tracks this game has. BTW this is my theory. Raceroom is the game I played the most (simracing) and despite I tested iRacing a few times, I never purchased cars/tracks, only rookie gaming, didn't like it at all. I guess RR would have much more success if they create a new GTR3 with a few categories such as this new touring class, WTCR, DTM 90s... and some other amazing cateogires Raceroom has (no more than 7-10 classess), a good ranked system online and develope a few DLCs a year. I'm playing RR lately (just came back from a year without touching it) and I don't really know why people don't play RR unless the purchasing model is not as friendly as purchase an Ultimate Assetto corsa version or ACC + any dlc.
Used Raceroom only since starting racing online, will always have full content and it just gets better. Great news for December with the tourers. Happy Racing all ❤
Day 1 buy. Been waiting so long for a modern Sim to do these cars justice, and I think raceroom is one of the best sims for fwd tourers. Going to relive my TOCA childhood. Heres hoping they also add the ~92 season cars in a different class. Would love to see this class built up with other greats from the era: Ford mondeo, Nissan Primera, Renault Megane, etc..
I just recently got my hands on a 1997 mint conditioned A4 . Imagine the thrill now when I see R3E drops the news on the Hasseröder A4 gets in the game! Oh boy! I can't wait to race it!
The 05 Brock Volvo 850 skin I see there is a Group N production car from the 1994 Bathurst 12 Hour. Hopefully they also include the stunning red livery from the '96 Super Tourer!
Hopefully this will kick-start a super touring trend. Why it has taken this long to get official super touring cars is a mystery but it's a welcome surprise.
Tried raceroom for the first ever time yday… maybe I need to give it a bit more time, but whilst I liked some of the DTM stuff, I didn’t quite click with it as much as RF2 AC ACC AMS2, will keep giving it a blast whilst all content is free
Even as a German...I think full GTE grid (with C8 Corvette and Ford GTLM) would be much better! Or some mid 2000s stuff like Ferrari 575GTC, Maserati MC12, Lambo Murcielago.
It's a nice update, sadly they didn't include the Primera, Mondeo, Laguna or 156, which were my favorite super tourers. Although I'm always reluctant to play Raceroom. Part of what I enjoy is painting my own pretty liveries, and I can't do that on this sim. I guess I'll try them out when they come out, but I'll remain loyal to VRC's ERC mod, until some more cars are added to this pack
Looks like a good pack. I have been looking for old Touring car racing since LFM dropped it from the Assetto corsa races. I don't currently own race room. What is the multi player like, would there be difficulty finding races etc?
Just downloading Raceroom to put it back on my PC just for the BTCC content. Not been on Raceroom for some time really hope they have or will soon have Thruxton as i love that track and its the only one ive ever driven in real life.
This is what they should have done all along, instead of trying to compete in the gt3 spec (call it what you will) Focus on weird quirky cars and circuits, and especially in fwd which is where raceroom reigns supreme. The battle against gt3/driver swaps/day night cycle is not winnable at all
Is it me or is the track limit system in raceroom completely wrong? You can't touch the curbs with the outside wheels anymore, like at 5:29. Is this supposed to be realistic? I don't think so.
If the inner tyres are on the asphalt and the external on curbs/beyond white line that's fine. As soon as the inner tyres are beyond the white line as well that's considered a cut and lap time ignored. It literally says in the loading screens
@@pierluigivinci6777 probably because the track isn't fully release ready yet. As far as i know, the limits aren't placed by hand and sometimes need some tweaking afterwards, so i guess everything will be fine on release i guess
@@Ionias Maybe, but when the cecember 2023 patch came out I remember it was very very difficult to do a lap in Monza, you just had to go on the kerbs at Lesmo or Ascari and the lap was void. This was really frustrating and it drove me away from raceroom because I couldn't push the cat at all. Now I see the same thing, the outside wheels on the kerb and "you left the track"
@@pierluigivinci6777it can also be tricky to judge from onboard. There have been plenty of times where i really didnt think i was off track but when looking at it from the outside it turned out i did actually cross the white line. Id also prefer to have more lenient track limits (kerb vs white line) but as long as theyre applied consistently (which i think is being done more than it was a year ago with the old track limits) its mainly a matter of getting used to it
I bought the premium pack a long time ago and I think the best option is now to delete my account and start a new one to buy the premium pack again :) (cheaper)
Have always loved driving in raceroom. But then struggle to get online races. Also I find it the least stable of all sims and I'm frequently getting errors, freezes and crashes. A shame and something I'm sure I could fix at my end. If I could figure out what it is about my computer that does not like r3e.
You can have good fun with them in most classes and on many tracks. Sometimes they have a weak spot on some corners and when you brake too early or miss the ideal line they will hit you from behind. But its on a good level overall. -Michel
@@OverTake_gg They are pretty good to race and quite competitive, although lack some visual detail re: suspension, body roll etc. and the opponent list feature is something other sims desperately need. However there seems to be some scoring issues, particularly with multiclass racing where they get lapped. It seems the game will let them continue driving until they finish the specified distance rather than ending the race, so those cars will pass you at full speed on your cooldown lap and are scored as finishing several minutes behind. Game also grids classes separately according to some ranking of their capabilities which is not adjustable, doesn't account for different circuits and seemingly hasn't been maintained properly given all the new content and physics revisions over years. If these small issues were addressed, RaceRoom would have truly viable and competitive 100-car offline racing at the Nordschleife which is something no other sim on the market could touch.
have way over 1k hours in R3E, but i dont play it as often anymore since the AI got worse. Porsche always spinning out, DTM92 always spin in chicanes ,its horrible to see...besides Nordschleife Turn 1 is a problem for years now. I dont race Online, im a old Singleplayer kid from GTR2, but i still buy all content.....i hope there will be AI Improvements in 2025
They look awful in Raceroom though!! After the so called graphics update, I hoped to excited by a pack like this, but the mod versions of these cars in Assetto Corsa look so much better!!
damn i wish gt7 have all this btcc cars. im getting boring playing gt3 cars 😑 almost 1 month i already stopped playing gt7. im moving to pc just because raceroom and new asetto evo coming next year
Race room need to ampliate the free content, I try to play but the base content it's trash... I don't wanna waste my money for any circuits or cars if the taste it's not interesting... Too much money for that they offer.
I love the 95 DTM content but THIS is the genre I've been praying for RaceRoom to do for a number of years. This is outstanding news, can't wait for December 10th!
Okay now its time to get back into RaceRoom for sure. Got a sweet spot for Oldschool Touring cars 😍
RaceRoom becoming better with each update! Unbelievable work from KW Studios!
Damn, I never expected to ever see those classic touring cars again in this modern age. I've been playing with them on AC using mods, but it's nice to see these return in an official manner. Giving RaceRoom a try...
I loved TOCA 2 and looking forward to STC and V1.6 of AMS 2.
Yup. Expecting Primera, Laguna and 406 to make the history repeats itself 😊
Fuckin finally. Someone made it. Hope for complete series
I am completely back to RaceRoom since the awesome September update. Loving it in VR! Really hyped, because of the upcoming LFM integration. Great stuff!

This could be the reason to get Raceroom for me.
I got it last month and fell in love with handling, force feedback, classes and engine sounds.
Coming from ACC, AC, Dirt Rally 1 and 2, and RBR.
Back in the day I played Toca 1 and Colin McRae Rally 2 on the ancients wheel bases of that time. Noisy, ugly, clunky and absolutely not smooth 😅

Joined RR about 2016 and was waiting for this one. Without night, rain, and special effects Raceroom is still my favourite racing experience
Those are coming soon to this sim too devs are hugely improving RR it’s nice to see
Growing up I used to love those Yellow Volvo 850 Turbos. I am so deep into iracing but this game is deff tempting me
What a class!

I dont get why Raceroom doesnt get as much players as it deserves, its so good in many many ways😔
I guess their purchasing model doesn't help.

Just few days ago i was crying in comments in Your previous video that A4 quattro is nowhere to be found and boom... RR coming with surprise :)
Ich bekomme Toca(ps1) feelings 😍😍
RaceRoom is the best car sim on the planet at this time.
I’ll definitely be checking this out, cool to see some Aussie liveries too (including a Bathurst 1000 winner)
I hope they add the Volvo estate(station wagon) to the pack. These were legendary here in the UK in the 90s.
Hopefully this will kick-start a super touring trend.
Why it has taken this long to get official super touring cars is a mystery but it's a welcome surprise.
Very nice! The only thing is that the front splitters all seem to be a little too high off the ground. Same with the '95 DTM cars.
omg now its gonna be the best sim ever!!
Waoooowwww waoooowwwww lol thx race room best racing game 😎👍👍👍
They also announced LFM collaboration for 2025
Really, great news
Really? 😀 Love the supertouring on AC
Really! ✌🏻 -Michel
