Although GT3 racing is all the rage nowadays, nothing beats good old touring car racing. I mean nothing! The championship is still on going in the UK and long may it continue. GG to the devs for using their initiative and bringing this content to life in the sim.
Came about to cut costs, but by 1998 the costs were insane. 10 million quid for two cars at Ford, Renault and Nissan and that’s the costs we know about. Laurent Aiello signed to Nissan in 99 for 750 grand, it was great but it spent itself into oblivion. Sad end for such a great category. Only hypercar since has had as much manufacturer interest.
Favorite Super Touring car - 1997 Williams Renault Laguna. Alain Menu absolutely dominating that year and some of my first ever memories of motorsport. In terms of memories, I think the Snetterton night race in 1999. I was there and remember the noise so vividly, sitting at the last corner with my parents and uncle. It was incredible!
What great news this is! I followed both BTCC and STCC in those days and I don't think I've seen better racing since. Thanks for including a small history lesson on top of all this.
Oh man, they can have whatever price they want to charge for this. Part of is nostalgia, but it is truly the greatest era of any saloon car series. Super Touring Power has been a wonderful event in the UK to get some of these old cars back on circuit, and it's unbelievable to have first party stuff for this category in 2024!
Race and Race07 captured plenty of realistic Touring Car awesomeness as well, a lot of that DNA was carried forward into the more modern RaceRoom touring car content as well. Hopefully they will carry forward some of that DNA into the new content as well.
There are nowhere near enough sims with supertourers. FWD in general gets left behind so much in sim racing and I wish it didn't, because some of my favorite racing moments have been slamming doors together with people while driving the wheels off of a 300hp, FWD hatchback or sedan.
Awesome video and content. Really love and appreciate the historical references, just brings it to life for us. Thank you and definitely going to buy these packs. Purchased all the other dlc content already and working my way through different car/track combos with my mates. Such a good game.
Such a fantastic class and a great video - will be grabbing this 100% - love the slightly lower power but tricky cars for door to door racing. The Primera for some reason sticks in my head the most from this era.
Nice video and great to include some of the history of the series. Very nice! I currently don't have race room, but this pack could change that. What is the online scene like, would there be a struggle to find races in these historic classes?
Me getting into Raceroom like 2 days before all these new vids dropping. I love it. Hoping i can get one of the starter pack before Black Friday is over! 🤞
Oh man I don’t have a pc but want this badly! Roughly how much would a cheap gaming pc be that would be sufficient to play this with even just with a controller!?
We've had this on AC for a while. LFM even tried it but unfortunately they dropped it. I & my friends really love this racing, why will this be any different?

100%! A victim of it’s own success

Very true, we think so!
Nothing screams "RaceRoom doing the 'Christmas has come earlier!'" better than bringing the super touring pack!
Getting strong Toca 3 vibes :)
I am moved. My memory goes to TOCA Touring Car Championship by Codemaster, it was the year 1997.
oh my god this might bring me back to raceroom
Instant buy for me. RR have come on a tonne this year. Carnt wait till the 10th❤. Super Stevie Soper!!!!
Oooooh yes! I can say that these cars feel and sound absolutely amazing in game ;)
I did notice you apparently had a hidden life as a super touring driver 👀
@@TraxionGG I think I was very spritely in my past life too 😏
@@JackKeithley leak alert
Toca touring was class...proppa snappy handling thougj

Dtm, then dtm 95, then btcc!!
This. Game. Keeps. Delivering.
Fantastic!
Such a fantastic class and a great video - will be grabbing this 100% - love the slightly lower power but tricky cars for door to door racing. The Primera for some reason sticks in my head the most from this era.
This was fantastic thank you

I'm going for first! Ah Murray was a legend
GOAT
oh hell yes! finally!!!
Finallyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!
@4:40 the 1995 cars were actually run by Warthofer, not Schnitzer.
Speaking of aussie supercars needs it's own game aswell
Sadly only 5% of the competition will have the skill to keep things sane on track
Looks very nice. Too bad I can't use my own paints. That's part of what I enjoy doing in sim-racing. . .
Oh man I don’t have a pc but want this badly!

1k euro
Raceroom 4 life ♥♥♥♥
These look awesome but i can't believe they all had that horrible LCD hud.
We've had this on AC for a while. LFM even tried it but unfortunately they dropped it. I & my friends really love this racing, why will this be any different?
Because half baked AC mods just aren't good enough
Dezember?
I'm sure these will feel great, but visually they seem to be too softly sprung and sit a bit too high compared to their real life counterparts.
No Primera, no buy!
More cars are expected at a later date - let's see what turns up...
2 views? fell off
Eh.
